@andrewgaul Do you think this note (in the README) would have helped?
Looks good to me, although most users do not read documentation so we should improve the error messages/loosen argument parsing restrictions as well. I will take a crack at this eventually if someone else does not beat me to it.
@shrinandj ran into confusing argument parsing earlier today as well

Agreed. What does the "usage" help message look like? Perhaps a better place for this?
Most of the confusion comes from the fact that we are using the "category" / "action" combination, which seems like an argument and after that we are passing options and finally real arguments.
I am feeling that we should provide a script per command and not use category/action at all. Something like:
./bin/jclouds-node-list --identity ????? --credential ????
instead of
./bin/jclouds node list --identity ????? --credential ????
I don't like that idea. Git like cli is preferred and further reinforced by the new aws cli.
