<p>When running the Einstein Toolkit executable with <code>--help</code>, the above command-line option appears. The 19,123 lines of output is terrifying, but could be made less so. For one thing, each element of a parameter array is shown individually, and many arrays have 100 elements. I think the output for arrays should be combined into a single line.</p>
