 SLAVE MODE PROTOCOL
 -------------------
 
+When run with the -slave option MPlayer will read commands separated by a
+newline (\n) from stdin. This allows controlling MPlayer like a user would with
+keypresses and command line options and is useful for building simple frontends.
+
 Most slave mode commands are equivalent to command line options.
 Have a look at the man page for more detailed descriptions.
 
-If the -slave option is given, playback is controlled by a line-based protocol.
-Each line must contain one of the following commands:
+All commands can be prefixed with "pausing ", causing MPlayer to pause as soon
+as possible after processing the command. Please note that this can be before
+the command is fully executed.
+
+Available commands:
 
-All commands can be prefixed with "pausing ", causing MPlayer to get into
-paused mode as soon as possible after processing the command.
-Please note that this can be before the command is fully executed.
