Unify the way parameters are described in man pages and --help message. Explain special syntax allowing the user to specify multiple modules when using -i/u/r/E mods. Point out that priority has to be specified in order to remove module at different priority than 400 and that "-d" disables all instances of given module across priorities.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
semodule is the tool used to manage SELinux policy modules,
|
|
including installing, upgrading, listing and removing modules.
|
|
semodule may also be used to force a rebuild of policy from the
|
|
module store and/or to force a reload of policy without performing
|
|
any other transaction. semodule acts on module packages created
|
|
by semodule_package. Conventionally, these files have a .pp suffix
|
|
(policy package), although this is not mandated in any way.
