+ConE report action
+==================
+
+The report action can be used to create a report based on report generation
+data created beforehand by the generate action using the switch ``--report-data-output``.
+The report can be generated based on a single data file, or by merging multiple files.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+**Creating a report from a single data file**::
+
+    cone report --input-data report.dat
+
+This would generate a report based on the data in ``report.dat`` into ``report.html``
+in the current directory.
+
+**Creating a report from multiple files**::
+
+    cone report --input-data rofs3.dat --input-data uda.dat --template template.html
+
+This would generate a report based the data from two generation runs, one for ROFS3 data
+and one for UDA data. The used template is overridden using ``--template``.
