What, you think that commands that give no useful help at all should be the *default*? Only clued users are going to change the default, and they're the ones who aren't going to need help. This should be Y by default and probably it's not worth making it conditional (how much space would we save? I doubt it's as much as 1K, i.e. 1/4 page). > Otherwise man > pages must be written with good examples and test cases. You say that like it's a *bad* thing. (But, testcases? In a manpage?
