[COGITO PATCH] Improvements for cg and cg-help

[COGITO PATCH] Improvements for cg and cg-help

[Pavel Roskin]

Hello!

cg should not run cg-help with arguments unless they were specified
after an explicit "help" command
("cg help -option")

cg without arguments should run cg-help.
cg with any option before the command ("cg -foo cmd") should also run
cg-help.

cg-help should print help for cg-help if specific help is not available,
e.g.:

$ cg-help foo
Error: no help available for "foo"
Usage: cg-help [COMMAND]
...

Dear diary, on Thu, Jun 09, 2005 at 05:17:22PM CEST, I got a letter
where Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> told me that...

> cg-help.

it shouldn't.

> cg-help should print help for cg-help if specific help is not available,

it shouldn't, it should report an error.

The rest was applied, thanks.
