The banner(1) manpage and the program's `usage' line are inconsistent.
Also, the manpage could use an `EXIT STATUS' section.

"man 1 banner" (show the manpage);
(e.g.) "banner -q" (print the `usage'-line, using a non-existent option).

Apply the following proposed patch (the MD5-sum of this patch is

please also update the date in the `.Dd' macro when needed):

 Thanks for extending the patch a bit, and applying the end result.

 However, some things seemed to go wrong as well: trailing white
 space was added to the manpage, the final argument in banner.c's
 `usage' line (still) isn't synchronized with the manpage's notation
 of it, and a dash (`-') disappeared from that same line,

 The patch attached (MD5 sum: c8a1e6dced6895706359e160e2dc2dab)
 fixes all this; please apply it.

 Thanks,

 Bug Hunting

 Oops. That's what I get for manually applying it. Better now?
