question: should there not be a help page for fossil itself, maybe
(`fossil help fossil') which explains this sort of things?
Is this perhaps what you're looking for:
[stephan@host:~]$ f help help
Usage: f help COMMAND
or: f COMMAND -help
Display information on how to use COMMAND. To display a list of
available commands one of:
f help Show common commands
f help --a|-all Show both common and auxiliary commands
f help --t|-test Show test commands only
f help --x|-aux Show auxiliary commands only
f help --w|-www Show list of WWW pages
?
no: `fossil --user joedoe ci' has the form
fossil fossil_option COMMAND COMMAND_option
so the possibility of having a option for fossil itself is not explained
in the help. or what am I missing? what I mean is, in my understanding the
terminology is COMMAND is one of the keywords (without leading dashes)
displayed by `fossil help -a' while `--user' is not a COMMAND but rather
an option (but not of one of the COMMANDS but of `fossil' itself.
