I disagree. settrans is the basic building block of almost everything a user 
does in the Hurd (except subhurds), so it should be selfexplanatory where 
possible and where it is not, --help should suffice. 

Most of the cool stuff I can show people in the Hurd involves settrans. 

Best wishes, 
Arne
