Yeah, I was considering that myself.
My thoughts
-> The usage message is already long, and adding more to it doesn't help
much.
-> If someone wants to know the version, they generally just want to know
that bit of information and don't want to have to sift thorough a lot of
extra data.
So, I guess an alternative would be to put it at the *bottom* of the usage
message (so that it doesn't scroll off the screen). Opinions?
