Issue:
Fixes #438
Given an object that has no init method, or the init method takes no arguments besides self passing a '--help' flag results in a less verbose help message than if no flag was passed at all.
Cause:
Fix:
A check to see if the object contains an init method, and whether or not the init method requires arguments fixes this. If no arguments are required, instantiate an object then show the help message.
