+REMOTE COMMANDS
+---------------
+Drush supports remote execution of commands on other machines, and
+also provides convenient functions for syncronizing file systems
+and sql databases (via 'drush rsync' and 'drush sql-sync', respectively).
+
+To execute a remote command:
+
+  $ drush user@remote.host.com/path/to/drupal#example.com status
+  
+The above will execute the status command on the drush site
+example.com (sites/example.com/settings.php) at the specified 
+root folder on the machine "remote.host.com".  To make a shorter
+name for a remote instance of drush, you may define a site alias.
+See example.drushrc.php for details.
+
+

 REQUIREMENTS
 ------------
 * To use drush from the command line, you'll need a CLI-mode capable PHP
