            Bug ID: 1708
           Summary: iptables-restore -h doesn't show -w and -W options
           Product: iptables
           Version: 1.8.x
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: iptables-restore
          Assignee: netfilter-buglog at lists.netfilter.org
          Reporter: pedretti.fabio at gmail.com

The options are supported, however they are missing from the help:

$ iptables-restore -h
Usage: iptables-restore [-c] [-v] [-V] [-t] [-h] [-n] [-T table] [-M command]
[-4] [-6] [file]
       [ --counters ]
       [ --verbose ]
       [ --version]
       [ --test ]
       [ --help ]
       [ --noflush ]
       [ --table=<TABLE> ]
       [ --modprobe=<command> ]
       [ --ipv4 ]
       [ --ipv6 ]
$

Also, the output could be improved:
- group together the short and long options
- use the same sorting as in the man page
