 =head1 SYNOPSIS
 
+  package App;
+  use Moose;
+  
+  with 'MooseX::Getopt';
+  
+  has 'data' => (
+      metaclass => 'MooseX::Getopt::Meta::Attribute',     
+      is        => 'ro',
+      isa       => 'Str',
+      default   => 'file.dat',
+
+      # tells MooseX::Getopt to use --somedata as the 
+      # command line flag instead of the normal 
+      # autogenerated one (--data)
+      cmd_flag  => 'somedata',
+
+      # tells MooseX::Getopt to also allow --moosedata,
+      # -m, and -d as aliases for this same option on
+      # the commandline.
+      cmd_aliases => [qw/ moosedata m d /],
+
+      # Or, you can use a plain scalar for a single alias:
+      cmd_aliases => 'm',
+  );
+
 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
+This is a custom attribute metaclass which can be used to specify a 
+the specific command line flag to use instead of the default one 
+which L<MooseX::Getopt> will create for you. 
+
+This is certainly not the prettiest way to go about this, but for 
+now it works for those who might need such a feature.
+
+=head2 Custom Metaclass alias
+
+This now takes advantage of the Moose 0.19 feature to support 
+custom attribute metaclass aliases. This means you can also
+use this as the B<Getopt> alias, like so:
+
+  has 'foo' => (metaclass => 'Getopt', cmd_flag => 'f');
+
 =head1 METHODS
 
+These methods are of little use to most users, they are used interally 
+within L<MooseX::Getopt>.
+
 =over 4
 
 =item B<cmd_flag>
 
+Changes the commandline flag to be this value, instead of the default,
+which is the same as the attribute name.
+
+=item B<cmd_aliases>
+
+Adds more aliases for this commandline flag, useful for short options
+and such.
