Be sure not to skip the top-most text (which likely scrolled off of your
screen):

[stephan@host:~]$ f help www
unknown command: www
Available commands:
...


There seems to be a lot of the help that is only available if one is "in

f help -a lists 'help':

[stephan@host:~]$ f help -a
3-way-merge    clean          help           rebuild        status
...

but you're right: help help "should" also list it. It kind of does, but
only if one makes the mental leap to "help" being an actual command (as
opposed to some meta-command):

[stephan@host:~]$ f help help
Usage: f help COMMAND
   or: f COMMAND --help
...

where "COMMAND" would be "help".
