This is a simple patch so that mythfrontend -h will display the help text
even if there is no X Server to attach to.

Thanks! [[BR]]

Comment(by doug@…):

hmmm - this raises a new issue in that it shows the generic help and not
the mythfrontend specific help. I think this patch needs some additional
work.

Comment(by doug@…):

Patch #2 is slightly more complicated. It allows a calling program (e.g.
mythfrontend) to send a callback to the command line parser. This
callback then gets passed what the command liner parser would have printed
as a QString. This enabled mythfrontend to print its specific parameters
as well as a formatted string of the generic parameters in a way that
looks normal.

help3.patch has a slight change to the callback to take a
MythCommandLineParser instead of a QString. This allows the ShowUsage
functions in mythfrontend and mythwelcome to stay exactly the same. The
MythCommandLineParser now passes itself in the callback so that the
calling function can do whatever it wants with the parser. This also adds
mythwelcome to the patch which was the only other executable I found that
has this issue.
