I'm not conviced that this is much more portable: A platform where stdin

I can see some merit in the idea that filters could print a short help
message when reading from a terminal, but creating a second
"interactive" version of each filter with a different name seems to
utf8dump). I'm sure I've used sort this way, too, though
rather rarely. I usually don't type the input but paste it in, but the
program can't distinguish that: All it sees is some input from the
terminal at stdin.
