22 I guess you are referring to this:
23
24 -H HERD Name of herd. If not specified, It will be empty. This requires
25 either the -e or -m option.
26
27 Which could be interpreted to mean that -H must also be accompanied by -e or -m.
28
29 I think the sentence is supposed to mean that if -H is NOT specified,
30 you must specify -e or -m.
