2008-03-15.txt:21:56:11: <ais523> that won't distinguish between $1=--help and $1=the help text for GNU echo, if that's what's being used
2008-03-15.txt:21:57:30: <ehird> '--help' is not equal to 'the help text'
2008-03-16.txt:14:22:06: <AnMaster> this one had the typo in --help

2008-10-19.txt:17:00:37: <AnMaster> $ ls --help
2008-10-19.txt:17:01:55: <AnMaster> not some funky --help
2008-10-19.txt:17:02:19: <Deewiant> I've always preferred --help and such
2008-10-19.txt:17:07:02: <Deewiant> --help is sufficient
2008-10-19.txt:17:09:11: <Deewiant> AnMaster: BSD. what's your point? My point was that that kind of stuff should be in --help.
2008-10-19.txt:17:09:27: <AnMaster> Deewiant, isn't in tsort --help on my linux
2008-10-19.txt:17:09:37: <Deewiant> AnMaster: What's your point? My point was that that kind of stuff should be in --help.
2008-10-19.txt:17:09:57: <Deewiant> AnMaster: My point was that that kind of stuff ******should***** be in --help.
2008-10-19.txt:17:10:23: <AnMaster> Deewiant, I don't want to have to pipe --help into less
2008-10-19.txt:17:11:19: <AnMaster> tsort --help | less
2008-10-19.txt:17:11:39: <Deewiant> Then have a short --help, and a --help-long.
2008-10-19.txt:17:11:54: <AnMaster> --help and --help --verbose
2008-10-19.txt:17:12:44: <AnMaster> Deewiant, now I think a good example of how to not do it: nmap --help
2008-10-19.txt:17:13:48: <Deewiant> nmap --help is pretty good IMO, could use more whitespace
2008-10-19.txt:17:16:05: <AnMaster> Deewiant, anyway yes --help is good, but with too many options it breaks badly
2008-10-19.txt:17:16:18: <Deewiant> yes, hence --help --verbose
2008-10-19.txt:17:17:26: <Deewiant> In general I guess best would be to have --help have the shortopts in the usual format and at most 20 lines of description of most important options
2008-10-19.txt:17:17:56: <AnMaster> so you get erlang shell if you try --help
2008-10-19.txt:17:20:18: <Deewiant> that's a good example, but the --help is terrible

2010-11-07.txt:00:49:44: <elliott> One would assume it could also do its equivalent of ('--help' | '-h') in configure_args.
