+Usage: $SCRIPT_NAME [OPTIONS]
+
+Create and manage systemd timer jobs with cron/at-like simplicity.
+
+Job Creation Options:
+  -t <time>         Time specification (see TIME FORMATS below)
+  -c <command>      Command string to execute
+  -f <script>       Script file to execute
+  -i                Send desktop notification on completion
+  -s                Log output to system journal
+  -m <email>        Send email notification to address
+
+Management Options:
+  -E                Edit jobs in crontab-like format
+  -L [filter]       List job logs (optionally filtered)
+  -S                Show status of all managed jobs and timers
+  -C                Clean up completed one-time jobs
+
+TIME FORMATS:
+  - Relative: "in 5 minutes", "in 2 hours", "tomorrow"
+  - Absolute: "2025-01-21 14:30", "next tuesday at noon"
+  - Systemd: "daily", "weekly", "hourly", "*:0/15" (every 15 min)
+
+EXAMPLES:
+  # Run command in 5 minutes
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -t "in 5 minutes" -c "echo Hello"
+
+  # Run script tomorrow with notification
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -t tomorrow -f ~/backup.sh -i
+
+  # Run command every hour
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -t hourly -c "curl -s https://example.com"
+
+  # Read command from stdin
+  echo "ls -la" | $SCRIPT_NAME -t "next monday at 9am"
+
+  # Edit existing jobs
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -E
+
+  # View logs for backup jobs
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -L backup
+
+  # Show status of all jobs
+  $SCRIPT_NAME -S
+
+  # Clean up completed jobs
