"help formats" doesn't work

[soichih]

I am trying to find what formats are available under --outfmt (without looking at the code..)

README says to "See 'help formats'".

I think it means to do following, but I am getting an error message (on v0.2.18)

$ underscore help formats
Unknown command: 'help,formats'

/usr/lib/node_modules/underscore-cli/bin/underscore:69
        .join(' ');
         ^

I am getting this error on "underscore select" as well.

# docker inspect 1963eb87dbc1 | underscore select .Status
["running"]
# docker inspect 1963eb87dbc1 | underscore select .Status --outfmt text
Error formatting output data in mode 'text': Object running has no method 'join'

I am using underscore-cli 0.2.18 on node v0.10.42 on RHEL7.2.1511

Two years later, still broken

$ underscore help formats
Unknown command: formats

Usage:
     underscore <command> [--in <filename>|--data <JSON>|--nodata] [--infmt <format>]
                         [--out <filename>] [--outfmt <format>] [--quiet] [--strict] [--color] [--text] 
                         [--trace] [--wrapwidth <width>] [--coffee] [--js]
 Commands:
    help [command]      Print more detailed help and examples for a specific command

and the output formats are broken too

$ underscore --in    some.json  --outfmt inspect
Usage:
     underscore <command> [--in <filename>|--data <JSON>|--nodata] [--infmt <format>]
                         [--out <filename>] [--outfmt <format>] [--quiet] [--strict] [--color] [--text] 
                         [--trace] [--wrapwidth <width>] [--coffee] [--js]
 Commands:
    help [command]      Print more detailed help and examples for a specific command
