Hi,
Most of the coreutils tools will ignore all other arguments
when --help or --version is given, but not 'echo':
$ /bin/echo --help ignore this
--help ignore this
$ /bin/echo --version ignore this
--version ignore this
But it says that it would:
$ /bin/echo --help | grep help
--help display this help and exit
$ /bin/echo --version | head -n1
echo (GNU coreutils) 6.12
