commit 818a206a4261f3d4153b0ab5c2025d77002290f5
Author: Jari Aalto 
Date:   Fri Feb 15 21:29:24 2008 +0200

    Add option aliases -V (for --version) and -h (for --help).

    This patch adds -h and -V short options (to complement the usage).

    It is based on a patch attached to Debian bug #466063, see
    .

    Idea by Jari Aalto ,
    patch adapted by Alexander Barton .
