If it is consistent, I have failed to figure out what the rule is. Each
thing I want to do I have to write out on a crib sheet.
Git:
* Flags with a single letter always start with a single dash
* Flags with multiple letters always start with two dashes
* If a flag contains multiple words they're concatenated with a dash
* I can run --help after each command to get help info
* Each flag has a full name and many have a single letter version as well
DMD:
* All flags start with a single dash, except for --help
* Flags that take arguments sometimes require a space, sometimes an
equal sign and sometimes nothing
* Some flags are a complete word, some flags are a single letter, some
flags are a couple of letters and so on
