These standards are too general for what I'm looking
for. I'm mainly interested in single-letter options
since these are the ones that can be confusing without
a reference manual. Atleast they have recommeded -o
for output file.

Thanks Calum for this hint. The closest I have managed
to find is
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5165/6mbb0m9b0?a=view

If we can find a way where people can submit what they
expect from each letter [a-zA-Z] as a command-line
option, we should be able to come up with reasonable
recommendations, considering which options options are
popular for which functions.

Any ideas how we can best do that?
