Package: scilab

It would be nice if all options were documented in scilab man page
[*]. It can be automated using help2man.

Thanks.

$ scilab -h
Usage:
scilab <arguments>

      Possible arguments are:
      -display Display: for use under Xwindow systems to set a
specific X server display.
      -d Display      : equivalent to -display Display.
      -e Instruction  : execute the scilab instruction given in
Instruction argument.
                        -e and -f arguments are mutually exclusive.
      -f File         : execute the scilab script given in File argument.
                        -e and -f arguments are mutually exclusive.
      -l Lang         : set the current language. Lang can be equal to fr or en.
      -mem N          : set the initial stacksize, for use with -ns argument.
      -nb             : do not display the Scilab banner at starting time.
      -ns             : do not execute scilab.start startup file. This
