When I do "man perl", I want to see a detailed explanation, and
somewhat hard-to-parse synopsis is ok.
I'm saying that I don't like to see such a thing when I type
"./scripts/kerneldoc -h". I expect a hint to recall which option I
should use. I don't want to scroll back the terminal.
It would be nice if the verbose man page can be shown by
"./scripts/kerneldoc -v -h" or "perldoc -F ./scripts/kerneldoc".

Sorry, I have no idea what I am being asked.
Could you rephrase above for a non-native speaker of English, please?
Thanks, Akira
