- Adds the help option (\c{-h}, \c{--help} and \c{-?} on Windows)
- as well as an option \c{--help-all} to include Qt-specific options in the output.
+ Adds help options to the command-line parser.
+
+ The options specified for this command-line are described by \c{-h} or
+ \c{--help}. On Windows, the alternative \c{-?} is also supported. The option
+ \c{--help-all} extends that to include generic Qt options, not defined by
+ this command, in the output.
These options are handled automatically by QCommandLineParser.
- Remember to use setApplicationDescription to set the application description,
- which will be displayed when this option is used.
+ Remember to use \c setApplicationDescription() to set the application
+ description, which will be displayed when this option is used.
