Hi all,

did anyone notice that webrev --help output is very sparse:

- .../hotspot $ ksh ../../../code-tools/webrev/webrev.ksh   --help
Usage: ../../../code-tools/webrev/webrev.ksh [-mONvfbC] [-c arg] [-i arg]
[-o arg] [-p arg] [-r arg] [-u arg]


compared to the output in case of an invalid argument:

../../../code-tools/webrev/webrev.ksh: -A: unknown option
Usage:  webrev [options]
        webrev [options] ( <file> | - )

Options:
        -v: Print the version of this tool.
        -b: Do not ignore changes in the amount of white space.

<snip>

?

Would it not make sense to make this consistent?

Thanks, Thomas
