Subject: [gentoo-catalyst] [PATCH 1/3] main: group related command line flags
Date: Fri,  9 Oct 2015 01:57:26 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1444370248-13159-1-git-send-email-vapier@gentoo.org> (raw)

This makes the --help output more manageable so people can quickly
scan and skip options that they don't care about.
