Without an option argument, display a crash usage help message.
If the option argument is a crash command name,

Interactive would be marginally easier, but not enough to make
it worth the effort.
And although it's undocumented, you can get a complete dump of
all pages
by entering "crash -h all".
That would be a good sentence to add to the "--help" clause.
Alternatively, if you've got a browser window open, go to the
"Builtin Help"
page of the crash whitepaper, and just click on the command you're
interested in:

_That_ is definitely nice!
Now that I'm futzing with this, another RFE or else "Request for how to really do
it":
a "source" command. In my environment, we've got 16 (yes, *sixteen*)
loadable
modules that need to get "mod -s MODNAME /path/to/modname.ko" -ed.
So not being a big fan of typing, my preference would be to:
mod | script-to-look-for-modules > mod-s-commands
source mod-s-commands
and presto, my .ko files are loaded.
So, is there an easier way, or is the "source" command reasonable?
