Hi,

Indeed, the updates are good, but dropping the more extensive option descriptions is not what you want from a users guide. It is *the* place to go if an option needs clarification.

Thanx,
Jaap

In some cases, remove option descriptions since the text just repeats the help output.

  +191 -408  WSUG_app_tools.xml    Modified

Is that really what we want? Is someone who looks at the UG also required
to look at the second, third, ... document (man pages) to find out the
command line options?
