>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
>            Reporter: Grant Sohn
>            Assignee: Grant Sohn

> The generic options have always been this:
> {noformat}
> Generic options supported are
> -conf <configuration file>     specify an application configuration file
> -D <property=value>            use value for given property
> -fs <local|namenode:port>      specify a namenode
> -jt <local|resourcemanager:port>    specify a ResourceManager
> -files <comma separated list of files>    specify comma separated files to be copied to the map reduce cluster
> -libjars <comma separated list of jars>    specify comma separated jar files to include in the classpath.
> -archives <comma separated list of archives>    specify comma separated archives to be unarchived on the compute machines.
> The general command line syntax is
> bin/hadoop command [genericOptions] [commandOptions]
> {noformat}
> However, almost all the hadoop command help follow an unwritten style which is similar to man page descriptions.
> This is the proposed improvement.
