TF.exe Command Line Help

Over this last week I’ve been working with pre-existing build scripts that previously pulled from VSS to move to TFS.  After we get the build running we’ll start looking at getting it into TFS Build, but for now the goal was to just migrate the code and make sure we could keep building. 

While converting the VSS MSBuild Community Tasks over to use TFS command line calls (tf.exe) I was dismayed by the fact that the command line help starts up the Help documentation in a window.  I’d much rather see the help spit out on the console like other command lines. 

I found a blog entry in which someone documented the TF.exe command line in a console formatted manner.  Nice.  This is the output I would have expected from TF.exe /?

Check it out.
