The basic usage will build the markdown files from a remote repository in the standard format into the local directory:

--branch new-version `# To pull from a different branch than the default`
--build-path build `# Where to place the built files`
--media-destination build/media `# Where to place the media files from the repository`
--template-path wrapper.tpl `# Path to an alternate wrapping template for the build HTML files`
--nav-path nav.html `# Path to an alternative navigation than the one provided in the repository`
--files-folder docs `# An alternative location inside the repository to look for markdown files (default: src)`
--media-folder media `# An alternative location inside the repository to look for media files (default: media)`
--relative-media-destination `# A URL base for linking to media inside the built HTML files (defaults to relative path to built media location - e.g.: ../media)`
--no-link-extensions `# Don't include '.html' extension in internal links`
