Jason Warner updated GSHELL-66:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: GShell-66.patch

I added some code to printUsage to generate the appropriate lists and syntax command only if those pieces were present.  I'm not attached to the wording or format, so if you feel like tweaking those go right ahead.

> When generating a commands --help, the syntax/usage should be auto-generated.
> For example take the {{help}} command's {{--help}}:
> {noformat}
> jason@Bliss.local:/> help --help
> help
>  -- 
>   VAL            Command name
>   -h (--help)    Display this help message
> {noformat}
> Ideally this should be rendered as:
> {noformat}
> jason@Bliss.local:/> help --help
> syntax: help [options] [COMMAND]
> arguments:
>   COMMAND    Command name
> options:
>   -h (--help)       Display this help message
> {noformat}
