+This plugin adds a command (that can be bound to a key) that adds a random
+number of dots in the input, making you look depressed, or overly thinking...
+
+.. note:: .......
+
+Installation
+------------
+Load the plugin.::
+
+    /load pointpoint
+
+Then use the command: ::
+
+    /pointpoint
+
+But since the goal is to be able to add the dots while typing a message,
+entering a command is not really useful. To be useful, this plugin needs to
+be used through a bound key, for example like this: ::
+
+    /bind M-. _exc_pointpoint
+
+You just need to press Alt+. and this will insert dots in your message.
+
+Command
+-------
+
+.. glossary::
+
+    /pointpoint
+        **Usage:** ``/pointpoint``
