The node "Command Arguments" can't be renamed because then the
standalone Info reader will fail to find this node with its
-O, --show-options, --usage option.
It looks for the following names:
"%s invocation",
"Invoking %s",
"Preliminaries", /* m4 has Invoking under Preliminaries! */
"Invocation",
"Command Arguments",/* Emacs */
"Invoking `%s'",
"%s options",
"Options",
"Option ", /* e.g. "Option Summary" */
"Invoking",
"All options", /* tar, paxutils */
"Arguments",
"%s cmdline", /* ar */
"%s", /* last resort */
and will find a completely irrelevant node when the
"Command Arguments" node becomes renamed to something else.
Maybe the node name should be changed in the standalone Info reader
as well, but such a change is still not backward compatible.
