Well reading Linux/Unix manual pages is not always easy.
If a specific part of a man page needs a magic decoder ring
ask.
Hint:
[optional stuff] in [] brackets.
something|somethingelse select one or the other ( | is or )
Most programs use the getopt library for command line input flags, see
the man page for it (man -a getopt):
getopt - parse command options (enhanced)
Many programs understand --help
Read about "BNF" (Bachus-Naur Form) if you want to garner a clue on
the roots of lots of stuff.
