描述

It would be nice if httpie had a compact help.

I tend to forget the various request item delimiters, but http --help spams the terminal scrollback with lots of unrelated information (I know, I can use less, but meh, I'm lazy). Why not include this in the compact "usage" printed when just running http?

研究方向
Review the httpie CLI's current help implementation in the source code, likely using argparse. Explore how the help flag works and where usage text is defined. Consider adding a compact help flag or modifying the default behavior to show a condensed version. Look at the comments for previous suggestions or rejected ideas. Implement the feature by creating a new help message that lists only the essential request item delimiters and common options, ensuring backwards compatibility.
