A user in the .de-forum pointed out that -h/ --help have the same output, even though the second version should display more info. Any thoughts on that?
-h is just an alias for --help. Maybe this is confusing: Benutzen Sie 'pacman --help' mit anderen Optionen für mehr Informationen ^^^^^^^^^^^ So you get more help when typing something like pacman -S --help
Good catch, is there any way we can clarify this wording a little. Even in english it's a shade unclear.
Perhaps: - use 'pacman --help' with other options for more syntax + use 'pacman --help' with other options for help on the specific option
Realize 'pacman -h' is identical too. Perhaps we should change the line that says only "options:" to be "operations:" and then: + use {-h --help} with an operation for available options
