Nested Usage Help Text #539

Closed stephanospavlou closed 5 months ago

stephanospavlou commented 5 months ago

Description As I am learning to use taskwarrior-tui, I find myself repeatedly referring to the usage text output of the help command. Making the output of this command nested, in the sense that it lists topics that I can call help on to get usage specific to the command or concept, would make parsing the usage text much easier on the user.

Solution Nested usage help menu.

Additional context Here's an example of the kind of nested usage help text I'm talking about, taken from Arch's package manager:

pacman_ex(1)

I think this actually belongs as an issue on the taskwarrior repo. Correct me if I'm wrong @kdheepak.

kdheepak commented 5 months ago

Yes I believe it does. taskwarrior-tui currently only shows help from inside the app:

But I do intend to expose more features in the cli arguments.

Sounds good, I will create this issue over there then. Thanks for your work @kdheepak!

This issue belongs on the taskwarrior repo, not here. Creating identical issue there: https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior/issues/3274
