Hi Rubén

Thanks for working on this, it is a nice follow up to your last series.

As this is an interactive program I think "Unknown key" would be clearer.

I was confused by this test as "add -p" doesn't seem to be printing
anything apart from the error. That's because it only captures stderr
(quite why an interactive program is writing its some of its output to
stderr and the rest to stdout is another question). I think we want to
capture the whole output otherwise we can't assert that the help isn't
printed. Something like this (which also adds coverage for '?' and 'p')
