awshelp
=======
awshelp forwards arguments to `aws` unless `-h` or `--help` are present
### install + setup
```bash
pip install awshelp
alias aws=awshelp
```
### motivation
I am sick and tired of:
**awscli 1.x**
```console
$ aws s3 --help
Unknown options: --help
```
**awscli 2.x**
```console
$ aws s3 --help
usage: aws [-h] [--profile PROFILE] [--debug]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--profile PROFILE
--debug
```
### in action
```console
$ aws s3 cp --help | head -10
awshelp: aws does not like --help, but I got you!
CP() CP()
NAME
cp -
DESCRIPTION
Copies a local file or S3 object to another location locally or in S3.
```
it even works if you have arguments!
```console
$ aws s3 cp foo bar --help | head -10
awshelp: aws does not like --help, but I got you!
CP() CP()
