(adopt:define-string *help*
  "retry runs another command, retrying it if it returns a non-zero exit code.~@
   ~@
   Options are available for configuring the number of retries and how long ~
   to wait before retrying.  If the command eventually succeeds, retry will ~
   return an exit code of 0, otherwise it will return an exit code of 1.")

(adopt:define-string *help-command*
  "By default, any non-option arguments to retry will designate the command ~
   to be run.  If the command itself has options, you'll need to use -- to tell ~
   retry which options belong to the command, e.g.:~@
   ~@
   ~:
    retry --backoff 5 -- ping -c 1 -w 1 example.com~@
   ~@
   You can use the --shell option to specify the command to run as a single ~
   string, which can be handy if you need to redirect its output:~@
   ~@
   ~:
    retry -t5 -b1 --shell 'curl -Lsf stevelosh.com | grep -q Hello'")
