+[POINTS_FILE]
+Structure of file containing instructions for mixing, processing and cutting:
+.TP
+.B "# with trailing space"
+starts comment (until end of line)
+.TP
+.B "# without trailing space"
+divides left and right part of line
+.TP
+.B "first line"
+left part denotes global start and stop of recording,
+right part denotes final remix command
+.TP
+.B "other lines with non-empty left part"
+denote border between tracks. Left part is time for cut, right part may be \fBoverlap $someTime\fP to denote fade betweeen tracks and/or \fBnoNewFile\fP to denote that no new
+track should start here (thus it's only a border between \fBsub\fPtracks) or may be left empty.
+.TP
+.B "other lines with empty left part"
+denote modifications of current (sub)track.
+Additional to all sox effects, \fBtrimsplice $position $discard $excess $leeway\fP is also valid.
+This combines splice and trim in a sensible manner.
+These type of lines must not occure successively.
