+Usage: $PNAME <definition.kore> <heuristic> <output dir> <threshold> [logging]
+
+$PNAME options:
+  <definition dir>  The definition.kore file to generate the matching decision
+                    tree from.
+
+  <heuristic>       A string of single characters representing a sequence of
+                    heuristics to use during pattern matching compilation.
+                    Valid choices are f, d, b, a, l, r, n, p, q, _, N, L, R.
+                    The most common case is 'qbaL'
+
+  <output dir>      The directory where the dt files will be written
+
+  <threshold>       Threshold heuristic to use when choosing which axioms to
+                    optimize. A value of 0 turns the optimization off; a value
+                    of 1 turns the optimization on for every axiom. Values in
+                    between (expressed as a fraction of two integers, e.g. 1/2),
+                    control the aggressiveness of the optimization. Higher
+                    values increase compilation times extremely, but also
+                    increase the effectiveness of the optimization. Consider
+                    decreasing this threshold if compilation is too slow.
+                    The most common case is '1/2'
+
+  [logging]         Set this (ie. to '1') to enable logging (very large output)
