Ruediger Meier f45f3ec34a misc: consolidate macro style USAGE_HELP_OPTIONS
changed in include/c.h and applied via sed:

  sed -i 's/fprintf.*\(USAGE_MAN_TAIL.*\)/printf(\1/' $(git ls-files -- "*.c")
  sed -i 's/print_usage_help_options\(.*\);/printf(USAGE_HELP_OPTIONS\1);/' $(git ls-files -- "*.c")

Ruediger Meier b1a294c448 misc: introduce print_usage_help_options()
Consolidate --help and --version descriptions. We are
now able to align them to the other options.

We changed include/c.h. The rest of this patch was
generated by sed, plus manually setting the right
alignment numbers. We do not change anything but
white spaces in the --help output.

text-utils/tailf.c:69:21: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer

Since many 'struct option' has used zero as NULL make them more readable in
same go by reindenting, and using named argument requirements.

Karel Zak 677ec86cef Use --help suggestion on invalid option
The current default is to print all usage() output. This is overkill
in many case.
