The old description is still available -- I started with that one years ago.

List of recent commands you get if you launch nimsuggest like
    
    
    $ nimsuggest --stdin board.nim
    Hint: used config file '/home/stefan/Nim/config/nim.cfg' [Conf]
    Hint: used config file '/home/stefan/nim-chess4/nim.cfg' [Conf]
    usage: sug|con|def|use|dus|chk|mod|highlight|outline|known 
file.nim[;dirtyfile.nim]:line:col
    type 'quit' to quit
    type 'debug' to toggle debug mode on/off
    type 'terse' to toggle terse mode on/off
    
    
    Run

Unfortunately not for all options it is clear what they mean, I had to ask Araq 
some years ago for it, but can not really remember details. But NimSuggest 
generally works fine and reliable, I am using it in my NEd editor for years. 
Well, when syntax is too wrong it may crash, for example when I load a Ruby 
file to convert it to Nim it may crash. I had a private local version of NEd 
which even did syntax highlighting based on nimsuggest, was working fine and 
nice, but CPU load was high, so I am not using that, as plain regexp 
highlighting offered by GtkSourceView is not bad.
