Cool! This is very welcome; I scratch my head every time I use openssl.
I personally greatly prefer GNU argument conventions, ie. dual dashes for
long arguments (--server) and short single-dash versions of the most common
arguments (-s). Even if you don't want to implement this now, changing the
docs to use the dual dash versions would make changing later possible.

For context, it's this way because solderpunk is using the go `flag` package,
which doesn't support GNU flags. Writing it that way would require pulling in
some external dependency, and probably doing some rewrites of the CLI flag
parsing.
