The format should be:

Usage: ${0##*/} [OPTIONS] THINGS_IN_UPPERCASE
One line description of program

Optional longer description of behavior.

Options:
 Optional subsection: (indented 1 space)
  -o <CAPITAL>  Description starting after 16 columns.
                (the option is indented with 2 spaces)
-------------->|<-- 16 columns
123456789
         0123456

The '-h' option to get help is listed last, with then description "Show this message".

The `prose()`, `bullet()`, and `flag()` routines in libremessages now make formatting the output consistently really easy.
