Manpage (-h) Usage mentions more arguments than explained #1

Open porg opened 12 years ago

porg commented 12 years ago

The "usage" mentions arguments, which are not explained in the further text. Thus I'm unable to use milky.

Also in general, the display of the help is not thought through: The Terminal emulation that comes bundled with milkyhelper (rxvt) comes with no scrolling. Thus I have to pipe the help info (-h) into less. But the included less, does not support colored text! Thus I additionally use the plain text help switch (-t).

The documentation is currently quite lacking. You can scroll in the urxvt bundled with pnd using shift + pgup/pgdown, (x, y in pandora).

I have plans for code and manpage docs later. As for now if you are familiar with Pacman (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman), you'll get somewhat idea how it works.

There is also README I included in the rebirth compo package. If you din't see it, I have it uploaded here: http://cloudef.eu/armpit/milkyhelper-howto.txt

I'll leave this issue open until we have more documentation.
