>Description:
The fetch command usage shows:

Usage: fetch [-1AFHMPRabdlmnpqrstv] [-o outputfile] [-S bytes]
             [-B bytes] [-T seconds] [-w seconds]
             [-f file -h host [-c dir] | URL ...]

While the man page shows:

SYNOPSIS
     fetch [-146AFMPRUadlmnpqrsv] [-B bytes] [-S bytes] [-T seconds] [-o file]
           [-w seconds] [-h host] [-c dir] [-f file] [URL ...]

The differences are with the -4 -6 -U -b -t switches.

>How-To-Repeat:
fetch
man fetch
>Fix:
I fixed the usage function so that it more closely resembled the man page.
