> Many new users to maven or any other such tools are used to getting at least
> some basic info of what is expected. How about just displaying the listing
> that shows up when a user writes "mvn -h" as default when no arguments are
> privided? This is also a feature that most other similar products have. I
> also would suggest printing a URL for where they can get basic information
> for how to use maven.
