print help to stdout #1163

Closed tansy closed 2 months ago

tansy commented 2 months ago

According to GNU coding standards `--help' should be printed to stdout. It makes sense as long help screen can be paged (`$ prog --help | more`), searched and so on. There is an issue with the paging here because when paged with less(1) it makes black screen and even leaving it is difficult. I understand that is the issue but I made it to acknowledge the problem.

I'm not going to jump through the hoops to commit oneliners, that are technically trivial, even if I, personally think they are important. Also who do I contact about this 'failed invocation' script?
