Package: osdsh
Version: 0.7.0-5wjq
Severity: minor

Hi Joachim,

The help screen of osdctl should, instead of:
        -b (name,val)     display a bar up to val, named "name"
        -l (name,val)     display a slider at val, named "name"
rather say:
        -b name,val     display a bar up to val, named "name"
        -l name,val     display a slider at val, named "name"
(parentheses removed) like it's shown in the man pages.

First, the parentheses will (almost certainly) cause trouble with the
shell and when escaped, the "\(" will make the name uggly ;-)

Also, having to pass two variables in one option-argument seems a bit
counterintuitive, but then it might be a lot of hard work to change that
and it's not so big trouble once one knows how to deal with it.

Grüße
Georg
