Usage: emacsclient [OPTIONS] FILE...
Tell the Emacs server to visit the specified files.
Every FILE can be either just a FILENAME or [+LINE[:COLUMN]] FILENAME.
The following OPTIONS are accepted:
-V, --version Just print version info and return
-H, --help Print this usage information message
-nw, -t, --tty Open a new Emacs frame on the current terminal
-c, --create-frame Create a new frame instead of trying to
use the current Emacs frame
-e, --eval Evaluate the FILE arguments as ELisp expressions
-n, --no-wait Don't wait for the server to return
-d DISPLAY, --display=DISPLAY
Visit the file in the given display
-s SOCKET, --socket-name=SOCKET
Set filename of the UNIX socket for
communication
-f SERVER, --server-file=SERVER
Set filename of the TCP authentication file
-a EDITOR, --alternate-editor=EDITOR
Editor to fallback to if the server is not
running
If EDITOR is the empty string, start Emacs in
daemon
mode and try connecting again

Yes, but nothing is there.

Erm, from the functionality side, yes, it should, but I still think
that this is a bug. Either the documentation, or (much preferred) the
software should be adjusted.
Kind regards,
