Version: 2.85-7
Severity: wishlist
File: /sbin/halt

Because the man pages may not be mounted at the time, it would be best
if commands like reboot would say a little more about their options than
# reboot -?
usage: reboot [-n] [-w] [-d] [-f] [-i] [-p]
# reboot --help
usage: reboot [-n] [-w] [-d] [-f] [-i] [-p]
