 //! ## Usage
 //!
 //! ```text
+//! fasten_mutate: Introduces point mutations randomly. There is no
+//! evolutionary model; multiple hits are allowed. Therefore,
+//! the number of SNPs through --snps is an upper
+//! limit.
 //! 
-//! Usage: fasten_mutate [-h] [-n INT] [-p] [-v] [-s INT] [-m]
+//! Usage: fasten_mutate [-h] [-n INT] [-p] [--verbose] [--version] [-s INT] [-m]
 //! 
 //! Options:
 //!     -h, --help          Print this help menu.
 //!     -n, --numcpus INT   Number of CPUs (default: 1)
 //!     -p, --paired-end    The input reads are interleaved paired-end
-//!     -v, --verbose       Print more status messages
-//!     -s, --snps INT      Number of SNPs (point mutations) to include per read.
+//!         --verbose       Print more status messages
+//!         --version       Print the version of Fasten and exit
+//!     -s, --snps INT      Maximum number of SNPs (point mutations) to include
+//!                         per read.
 //!     -m, --mark          lowercase all reads but uppercase the SNPs (not yet
 //!                         implemented)
+//!
