yes, the user functions appear in italics in the Catalog and I think this is a great thing, very useful to see if a user function have (erroneously) the same name of a system one and for other reason.
Still is not possible to attach some help (besides the comments //). I do hope in a next version to have a way to get a help to show in the Catalog pressing on the user name function.
In the present FW it isn't possible.

Have you considered created a wrapper (CAS) program that checks the arguments?
Code:
#cas
myprog(args):=
BEGIN
local s:=SIZE(args);
CASE
IF s==0 THEN
// code for when no arguments supplied
// presumably here is where you can display some help text or even
// just return a string with some info on how to use the command
END;
IF s==1 THEN
// code for when a single argument is supplied
// or simply call another program:
RunMyHOMEProg(args);
END;
END;
END;

Thank you Han, it seams convincing and should work. I will try it.
Cheers
