Hello,

I attach a small patch which add the -h argument to nginx. As common
programs, this arg show the available options.

[root@wp0men04s /LIBRE/nginx/nginx-0.7.44]# ./objs/nginx -h
Usage: nginx [-h] [-v] [-V] [-t] [-c filename] [-g param] [-d basedir]

Options:
-h : list available command line options (this page)
-v : show version then exit
-V : show version and configure options then exit
-c filename : set conf file (default: /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf)
-g param : set conf directive out of conf file

nginx version: nginx/0.7.44

Don't know if you're interested in such a patch. But the first time I
tried nginx I was kind of lost on where to find available options.

And I ask myself a question, why use those lines:
p = "nginx version: " NGINX_VER CRLF;
n = sizeof("nginx version: " NGINX_VER CRLF) - 1;

if (ngx_write_fd(ngx_stderr_fileno, p, n) != n) {
return 1;
}

instead of

p = "nginx version: " NGINX_VER CRLF;

if (ngx_write_fd(ngx_stderr_fileno, p, strlen(p)) != n) {
return 1;
}

Thanks
