Options (flags) that can be passed anywhere in the command chain.
-h, --help
-j, -json

This flag adds indentation for readability.
Show help about last valid command. For example
tipc nametable --help
will show nametable help and
tipc --help
will show general help. The position of the option in the string is irrelevant.
