+
+=item B<--help>
+
+Print a brief help message and exits.
+
+=item B<--man>

+
+=item B<-m>
+
+Defines the maximum number of days in advance to send advance notices.
+
+
+
+=item B<--itemscontent>
+
+comma separated list of fields that get substituted into templates in
+places of the E<lt>E<lt>items.contentE<gt>E<gt> placeholder. This
+defaults to due date,title,author,barcode
+
+Other possible values come from fields in the biblios, items and
+issues tables.

+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This script is designed to alert patrons when items are due, or coming due
+
+=head2 Configuration
+
+This script pays attention to the advanced notice configuration
+performed by borrowers in the OPAC, or by staff in the patron detail page of the intranet. The content of the messages is configured in Tools -> Notices and slips. Advanced notices use the PREDUE template, due notices use DUE. More information about the use of this
+section of Koha is available in the Koha manual.
+
+=head2 Outgoing emails
+
+Typically, messages are prepared for each patron with due
+items, and who have selected (or the library has elected for them) Advance or Due notices.
+
+These emails are staged in the outgoing message queue, as are messages
+produced by other features of Koha. This message queue must be
+processed regularly by the
+F<misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl> program.
+
+In the event that the C<-n> flag is passed to this program, no emails
+are sent. Instead, messages are sent on standard output from this
+program. They may be redirected to a file if desired.
+
+=head2 Templates
+
+Templates can contain variables enclosed in double angle brackets like
+E<lt>E<lt>thisE<gt>E<gt>. Those variables will be replaced with values
+specific to the overdue items or relevant patron. Available variables
+are:
+
+=over
+
+=item E<lt>E<lt>items.contentE<gt>E<gt>
+
+one line for each item, each line containing a tab separated list of
+title, author, barcode, issuedate
+
+=item E<lt>E<lt>borrowers.*E<gt>E<gt>
+
+any field from the borrowers table
+
+=item E<lt>E<lt>branches.*E<gt>E<gt>
+
+any field from the branches table
+
+=back
+
+=head1 SEE ALSO
+
+The F<misc/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl> program allows you to send
+messages to patrons when their messages are overdue.

-See the comments in the script for directions on changing the script.
-This script has the following parameters :
- -c Confirm and remove this help & warning
- -m maximum number of days in advance to send advance notices.
