1. Unix Programs: User Help, is there a Standard Message?

Is there a standard message that should be displayed to users when
a programs "help" option is deployed:

        example taken from the "rm" command:

        rm --help
        Usage: rm [OPTION]... FILE...
        Remove (unlink) the FILE(s).

  -d, --directory       unlink directory, even if non-empty (super-user
only)
  -f, --force           ignore nonexistent files, never prompt
  -i, --interactive     prompt before any removal
  -v, --verbose         explain what is being done
  -r, -R, --recursive   remove the contents of directories recursively
      --help            display this help and exit
      --version         output version information and exit

It seems I always see these elements:

1) Usage:
2) Description:
3) Options
4) Real Example:

Thanks Ladies and Gentlemen,
Chris
