Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2602:
----------------------------------------

I can change the name of the subcommand class from 'pdftoimage' to 'render' so 
that when calling render the correct usage name is shown. But now hwne using 
the PDFToImage main independent of pdfbox app the name is also 'render'.

WDYT?

> The command line tools shall be enhanced to have the same behavior across all 
> tools.
> From the discussion on the dev mailing list
> - add an -h option to print the usage
> - print the usage to System.err and use an exit code of 1 if there was an 
> invalid command line parameter
> - print messages on exceptions to System.err
> - rethrow the exception so java can handle it if it will terminate afterwards 
> anyway
> - use an exit code of 1if rethrowing doesn't make sense
> Additional input:
