+=head1 NAME
+
+guestfs-ruby - How to use libguestfs from Ruby
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ require 'guestfs'
+ g = Guestfs::Guestfs.new()
+ g.add_drive_opts("disk.img",
+ :readonly => 1, :format => "raw")
+ g.launch()
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This manual page documents how to call libguestfs from the Ruby
+programming language. This page just documents the differences from
+the C API and gives some examples. If you are not familiar with using
+libguestfs, you also need to read L<guestfs(3)>.
+
+=head2 EXCEPTIONS
+
+Errors from libguestfs functions are mapped into the C<Error>
+exception. This has a single parameter which is the error message (a
+string).
