Reducing Sphinx doc verbosity on command line help

I find that documentation for pip is hard to read, because it contains too much filler whitespace and repeated obvious headings. Take this as example: http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/usage.html#pip-show -----[cut now]------------------------- pip show Usage <http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/usage.html#id18> pip show [options] <package> ... Description Show information about one or more installed packages. Options *Show Options:* -f, --files Show the full list of installed files for each package. *Other Options:* - *General Options*<http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/usage.html#general-options> Examples 1. Show information about a package: $ pip show sphinx --- Name: Sphinx Version: 1.1.3 Location: /my/env/lib/pythonx.x/site-packages Requires: Pygments, Jinja2, docutils -----[cut proposed]----------------------------- pip show pip show [options] <package> ... Show information about one or more installed packages. Options -f, --files Show the full list of installed files for each package. *Examples* *Show information about a package (html anchor)* $ pip show sphinx --- Name: Sphinx Version: 1.1.3 Location: /my/env/lib/pythonx.x/site-packages Requires: Pygments, Jinja2, docutils -- anatoly t.
