Hi,

three suggestions:

* the "--version" and the "-h, --help" explanations are currently
printed above all other options - although obviously they are the
least useful for the user who just typed "foobar -h".

Proposal: print the above mentioned below all other options.

* Print "section" names in UPPERCASE or in "Title Case" to let the
user distinguish options more easily. This refers to "usage:",
"description:", "options:" and "%OptionGroup options:"

* make an enhancement to use coloured output in help messages

Thanks, Thorsten
