+=head1 NAME
+
+virt-copy-out - Copy files and directories out of a virtual machine disk image.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ virt-copy-out -a disk.img /file|dir [/file|dir ...] localdir
+
+ virt-copy-out -d domain /file|dir [/file|dir ...] localdir
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<virt-copy-out> copies files and directories out of a virtual machine
+disk image or named libvirt domain.
+
+You can give one of more filenames and directories on the command
+line.  Directories are copied out recursively.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Download the home directories from a virtual machine:
+
+ mkdir homes
+ virt-copy-out -d MyGuest /home homes
+
+=head1 JUST A SHELL SCRIPT WRAPPER AROUND GUESTFISH
+
+This command is just a simple shell script wrapper around the
+L<guestfish(1)> C<copy-out> command.  For anything more complex than a
+trivial copy, you are probably better off using guestfish directly.
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+Since the shell script just passes options straight to guestfish, read
+L<guestfish(1)> to see the full list of options.
