Isn’t that —help?

Not all programs have a --help, and --help doesn't always give you clear examples of how to use something. For example, ffmpeg's help gives a dump of all the options, and no examples of how you probably want to put them together.

Gotcha I’m still learning Linux, thanks for the clarification.
