Let me express my opinion o this.

Well, it should look like this:

Clzip - lossless data compressor

Without full stop at the end, because it is a title and titles are not ended with full stop.



> The "Use '-vh' for full help" part belongs in the short help, but not in the long help.

Well, they you should put use other options from -h in -vh either.

> It also should be in a very visible place,

It is on very top of options as -h, --help is the very top of all options. So it cannot be more prominent than that.
And it does not belong to title - help screen is neither primary nor main program feature, therefore it should not be in the title.

> not buried among the options.

How is it buried when it is on the very top of all options?

> Therefore I think that the first line (and not the --help line) is the right place for it.

I hope I argued that it is exactly where it does not belong.
