> `nmap -h` you might also use `man nmap`

I wish linux man pages had more example sections. TBH I reach for `tldr nmap` or `tldr ...` first in most cases.

I hadn't heard of tldr. Looks neat! Here's a link for other people who didn't know: https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr

Yeah it's such an old meme to say "Just read the man page" but there are a non-zero amount of completely useless man pages and tldr is a great alternative.
