New Content - Rejected Bug with CLI help command (unexpected "refresh" behavior)

[Ethelred]

When I enter

help refresh

as a command in the CLI, I get the response

help cannot be refreshed.

which seems wrong to me. I expect to get a summary of the available forms of the refresh command and the paramaters expected. For example,

help inv

returns, among others,

refresh all | status | equip | inv | storage | familiar | stickers -      resynchronize with KoL.

which is what I was expecting. This behaviour has been around for some time and I've mentioned it in other threads, but it seems like it should get a thread of its own.

It's a feature. Anything with "refresh" in it is treated as the refresh command with the other part as the parameter. You can use "help refres" to get what you want. I'm changing this to rejected based on a thread that probably disappeared with the old bug tracker.

Edit: It's already listed as New Content - Rejected and I see no note about anyone changing that...

What's the idea behind this feature? It just seems a little unexpected.

Presumably to be able to do things like "inv refresh" instead of having to remember it's "refresh inv"
