+# About
+TSMPIPE is a Tivoli Storage Manager client, that enables you to take data from STDIN and store that in TSM as a BACKUP or ARCHIVE object.
+
+In its simplest form, you can
+```cat myfile.ext | tsmpipe -c [MORE OPTIONS]```
+
+Or, where an application supports "dumping" to STDOUT, you can pipe that dump into TSMPIPE.
+```myappdump | tsmpipe -c [OPTIONS]```
+
+Getting data back is the reverse
+```tsmpipe -x [MORE OPTIONS] > myfile```
+
+Or, back to your application
+```tsmpipe -x [MORE OPTIONS] | myapp```
+
+For help, use tsmpipe -h
+To test that you can connect to TSM, use tsmpipe -i
