I strongly like the way the help output dumps every command: I like to be able to do 'virsh help | grep part-of-the-command-name-that-i-remember' or similar. The proposed subsection bit is more code and requires multiple commands if a user just wants to browse the whole help output. Regarding the sorting... it seems like within disparate categories some of the commands are grouped logically rather than strictly alphabetically. Like the two pin commands above. They should have probably been named pin-vcpu and pin-emulator for better alphabetic consistency. I agree it's confusing but I wouldn't be surprised if a patch to the list generates some bike shedding :) I think for these issues it's better to just say 'please send a patch to libvir-list' than track them here. Closing as DEFERRED |
