42 // * --helpfull

46 // * --helppackage
47 //     Shows help on all modules in the main package
48 // * --version
49 //     Shows the version and build info for this binary and exits
50 // * --only_check_args
51 //     Exits after checking all flags
52 // * --helpon
53 //     Shows help on the modules named by this flag value
54 // * --helpmatch
