         The command will prompt for the tracker home directory
         (if not supplied through TRACKER_HOME or the -i option).
         The template, backend and admin password may be specified
         on the command-line as arguments, in that order.
 
+        The last command line argument allows to pass initial values
+        for config options.  For example, passing
+        "web_http_auth=no,rdbms_user=dinsdale" will override defaults
+        for options http_auth in section [web] and user in section [rdbms].

+        whole argument in quotes if you need spaces in option value).
