Description

As a user, I want to be able see quickly how I can source Inspec profiles from the command line. Currently there's no facility to do this.

InSpec and Platform Version

version: 0.2.9
Platform: OS/X

Replication Case

12:41:07-rlupo~/profiles$ inspec exec --help
Could not fetch inspec profile in "--help".
12:41:16-rlupo~/profiles$ inspec exec help
Could not fetch inspec profile in "help".
12:41:20-rlupo~/profiles$ inspec help
Commands:
inspec archive PATH # archive a profile to tar.gz (default) or zip
inspec check PATH # verify all tests at the specified PATH
inspec compliance SUBCOMMAND ... # Chef Compliance commands

I think this is a dup of #885. Right now to get command specific help you need to run inspec help COMMAND (e.g. inspec help exec)

@stevendanna thanks and that workaround helps. Happy to close if this is a dupe
