_Dbg_help_add help \
'**help** [*command* [*subcommand* ..]]

If no arguments are given, print a list of command names.
With a command name give help for that command. For many commands
you can get further detailed help by listing the subcommand name.

Examples:
---------

  help
  help up
  help set
  help set args' 1 _Dbg_complete_help
