Clearcase - commands such as 'cleartool describe', man page in ct+describe.1
Has 'cleartool help describe' (and 'cleartool describe -help') which gives a
usage summary, and 'cleartool man describe' (or 'man ct+describe') for the
man page.
So basically the same solution, but a slightly different choice/use for keywords.
(and if one has an alias 'ct=cleartool', it seems to make more sense).
