Description

@Karl-WE

including a perma link into the help window

currently the help output is very basic.

Usually commands in cmd / powershell will not open a Win32 message box for help (except some few like slmgr, msiexec but print it in the console

including a link or output in console session

Please consider to output the help content into the console session and / or include a permanent link to
https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/blob/master/doc/user-docs/UsingCommandlineArguments.md

for further documentation. . This will help new users

currently the output is a Win32 message box.
