    Description

      Tools like mongoimport and mongorestore only print options using the help argument. If they printed a short description similar to what is seen here:

      http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Import+Export+Tools

      it would be really helpful to users. The description for mongoimport should also describe how the import happens (insert line by line, flush to disk every 60 seconds). Man pages for *nix environments would also be useful.
