David Eric Pugh commented on SOLR-13934:
----------------------------------------

Two thoughts, 

1) We could change the documentation to highlight the `-h` feature as well.

2) The other thing I noticed is that the defaults in the shell script differ 
from the post.jar.  For example, the `auto` parameter in shell defaults to 
true, but in post it is false.   This is actually what tripped us up, and 
prompted this documentation fix.   Should we maybe have another issue to get 
the defaults to match in the linux and the jar?  Related maybe, should a lot of 
the code in the shell script be moved into the post.jar?  for example, the 
`print_usage()` method duplicates much of what the -h parameter returns from 
the Java..   Push to have post.jar be most of the code, and have a small 
`bin/solr/post` script.  It would be easy then to add a `bin/solr/post.cmd` or 
`bin/solr/post.ps1` helper scripts.
