Hi, Rebecca.

That's ok. I didn't notice the --help has not been implemented. So I can 
remove the line:
-For the full list of options from command line, see `./main --help`.

But after remove it. There seems a little stranger about how to get the 
full list of options at the time. How do you think about it?

Thanks for you advice to makes it looks better.
