 Alternate IO allows reading and writing from/to a UNIX domain or TCP sockets
 instead stdin/stdout. This places the program in daemon mode. The syntax for
-altio is either "unix:/path/to/socket" or "inet://address:port".
+altio is either "unix:/path/to/socket" or "inet://address:port". If "unix:/"
+and "inet://" prefixes are ommited the program tries to guess the desired mode
+based on the existing of a leading slash.
