So in sum, please restore the --help-full CMake 2 functionality (or an approximation to it where you simply dump out all documentation classes to stdout) for CMake-3.
I also just discovered that --help-man and --help-html were gone as well for those who preferred man or html formatting of the full documentation as opposed to the ascii form delivered by --help-full. The latter is the most important to me and is presumably the easiest to implement, but I am sure others prefer the man page or html formats instead so I hope CMake developers will deal with those cases as well. And to adapt the polite but extremely useful "just my opinion" phrase from David Cole that I just admired ( :-) ) .... This suggested restoration of --help-full and the rest is just an expression of my (strong) opinion that cmake 3 should continue to be as convenient to run and use as cmake 2.
