> The help command tries to align usage and description columns for the various shell command services. Unfortunately, this doesn't work very well when the columns for some commands are long. I think we should modify help so it gives only the usage by default and you can say "help <command>" to get the description. Of course, the reverse might also make sense, but descriptions tend to be longer.
