The latter. The two effects are sort of coupled: --long adds "desc" and
"episode" to the search fields and adds "timeadded" (relative) and
"desc" to the results display. The listing of --long in two categories
of the help text was fudged - only one option is used - which seems
slightly goofy since --long always changes search behaviour and results
formatting simultaneously. Feel free to make it more intelligible.
