You might try the man pages and some other packages. Beside the man
pages for each debhelper program there is a debhelper man page.
I didn't understand what you were trying to accomplish with the init
example. In general
dh_installinit -p foo -n
dh_installinit -p bar -some_option
should work. Could it be that you were looking for the
-Xitem, --exclude=item
switch?
