command:
./cpulimit -h
ouput:
Usage: cpulimit [OPTIONS...] TARGET
OPTIONS
-l, --limit=N percentage of cpu allowed from 0 to 800 (required)
-v, --verbose show control statistics
-z, --lazy exit if there is no target process, or if it dies
-i, --include-children limit also the children processes
-h, --help display this help and exit
TARGET must be exactly one of these:

Why not include this usage doc in README?

I guess, to avoid duplication. If the info is in two places, you need to synchronize them.

Maybe a reference to where to find the usage info then might be an adequate solution?
