Description

currently, arv-put waits for stdin.

$ arv-put
0

it would be less confusing if arv-put alone would function as arv-put --help.

Brett has suggested:

Maybe we should detect when stdin isatty, and abort with a help message in this case.

A common idiom to accept stdin is to give the '-' as an option to the tool.
