[PATCH Cogito] Make cg more robust and user friendly

Jonas Fonseca· Oct 2, 2005, 10:13 UTC · lore

Accept -h in addition to --help. Error out on unknown options. Convert to be a real bash script and slightly simplify the control flow, so we can use the 'type' builtin command for checking if the requested Cogito command exists in the PATH.
