     * <code>

     * array(
     *  0 => array(

     * Each row of the array represents the help information for a single option.
     * The first cell of a row contains the option name (maybe short, long or 
     * both), the second cell contains the help text of the option.
     *
     * The returned array is used by {@link ezcConsoleInput} for different 
     * purposes.
     * For example, the user can retrieve it raw through the
     * {@link ezcConsoleInput::getHelp()} method, he can generate a help
     * {@link ezcConsoleTable} through {@link ezcConsoleInput::getHelpTable()} 
     * are can generate a printable help text through {@link 
     * ezcConsoleInput::getHelpText()}.
     *
     * The parameter $long defines if the long or short help text of the 
     * options should be used in the second cell of the returned array. The
     * $optionsFilter parameter is used to restrict the generated help to a certain 
     * sub-set of options. It consists of an array of short or long names of 
     * the options to include.

/**

     * contrast to the latter one, this method returns an array with 1 
     * dimension more, grouping options into categories. The $groups parameter 
     * defines the categories to generate. Each category may contain an 
     * arbitrary number of options, options might occur in different 
     * categories.

     *  '<category name>' => array(
     *      0 => array(

     * </code>
     *
     * The $long parameter, as in {@link generateUngroupedOptionHelp()} 
     * determines if the options short or long help is to be used. The

     * is displayed at all. If $optionsFilter is submitted and is not null,
