This is not what the otpclient-cli(1) man page says:
Main Options:
-v, --version
Show program version.
show Show a token.
list List all pairs of account and issuer.
export Export data.
I suspect that these were intended to be commands, thus without
hyphens. But perhaps that this is no longer the case.
So either the program or the man page needs to be changed.
The man page also gives
Help Options:
-h, --help
Show this help.
--help-show
Show options.
--help-export
Export options.
The -h / --help option works and gives a different usage,
and --help-show and --help-export do not work.
