Currently the help message is (IMHO) useless

$ z -h
z [-chlrtx] args

Unless you've already read the README, you cannot understand what the options are for.

Granted, this patch duplicates the options documented in the README and the man page.

A solution might be to use help2man or something similar.

Tell me what you think!

TIA

+1. z -h would be more useful to new folks.

On line 115: change EOF => 'EOF' for proper block commenting. Unless I don't know something about EOF that changes that. This would be a very helpful feature though.

This would be very nice - a new non-conflicting PR would be helpful though.
