New submission from Benjamin Peterson:
I current get this behavior:
% python3 -m json.tool -h
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/runpy.py", line 160, in _run_module_as_main
"__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name)
File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/runpy.py", line 73, in _run_code
exec(code, run_globals)
File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/json/tool.py", line 40, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/json/tool.py", line 21, in main
infile = open(sys.argv[1], 'r')
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '-h'
Instead of that, json.tool should show a helpful message expalining what it does in response to the -h or --help flags.
