NAK
I don't see the value to add "try help command" on all the error messages, the user is already aware that there is a help command available, and some people might actually find this repetition annoying.

Okay, we would like to share our observations and views also on this.
As the info on help command is not available in doc/nor in command line, user might have to explore its right usage for ip_pipeline.
Following are the possible way of help command:
--help, - help, help followed by command
So ,Providing correct syntax for searching the command details in console would be more clear from user perspective.
Hence "try help command" is provided whenever a command fails.
Kindly let us know if you still feel it is not appropriate.
Regards,
Agalya B
