The docopt documentation says:

"[options]" is a shortcut that allows to avoid listing all options (from list of options with descriptions) in a pattern. For example:

Usage: my_program [options]

--all List everything.
--long Long output.
--human-readable Display in human-readable format.

is equivalent to:

Usage: my_program [--all --long --human-readable]

--all List everything.
--long Long output.
--human-readable Display in human-readable format.

However, it seems that docopt.c ignores this shortcut. It would be really nice if it didn't.

Unfortunately docopt.c supports only a subset of all features right now.

Add support for docopt's [options] shortcut (closes issue docopt#22)

When the [options] shortcut is detected on the usage section, we use the
contents of the options section to get the full list of options, rather
than
just getting those options that are explicitly mentioned on the usage
section.
