This way, you can keep on using `cp --help`, but get colorized help pages.
> [!TIP]
> To remove these abbreviations later, run:
> ```fish
> abbr -e -- --help
> abbr -e -- -h
> ```
> The `--` before the abbreviation name is required because `--help` and `-h` start with dashes, which would otherwise be interpreted as flags to `abbr` itself.
Be aware that in some cases, `-h` may not be a shorthand of `--help` (for example with `ls`). In cases where you need to use `-h`
as a command argument you can prepend `\` to the argument (eg. `ls \-h`) to escape the aliasing defined above.
