No. Not unless you want to simulate it to the point of honoring the
different verbosity settings, which would greatly expand the size of
the
patch. We do not try to make the response to "help" look like an
error
message, and I don't see the value of doing so here either.
(I think Florian's real problem with the proposed output is that it's
ugly, which I agree with --- the formatting is strange.)
I'm with you on that one; I tried to address that in the second
revision of the patch. But I'm definitely open to suggestions.
Regards,
David
