Mmm.. not sure.  It certainly is not what the other programs do: they
just show detailed version information, which would be analogous to
Emacs showing a long list with versions of all the bundled packages.

It could make sense, IMHO, to display some more detailed usage
instructions, but the manual's Introduction is hardly a good candidate
for this.  Some list of popular commands might be a better idea.
