Arguably, the output of "foo -h" is more light weight than "man foo". OTOH, if lots of long options make it necessary to do this instead: "foo -h 2>&1 | more -es", then I see where you're coming from. Why not just supply an one-letter option that is equivalent for every long option? Might make for a more verbose man page, but... Andrew Lankford
