+		[help]
+			This option is handy for system shutdown scripts which would like
+			to terminate the dss daemon process.
+
+			Without --wait the dss process which executes the kill subcommand
+			exits right after the kill(2) system call returns. At this point the
+			signalled process might still be alive (even if SIGKILL was sent).
+			If --wait is given, the process waits until the signalled process
+			has terminated or the timeout expires.
+
+			If --wait is not given, the kill subcommand exits successfully if
+			and only if the signal was sent (i.e., if there exists another dss
+			process to receive the signal). With --wait it exits successfully
+			if, additionally, the signalled process has terminated before the
+			timeout expires.
+
+			It makes only sense to use the option for signals which terminate dss.
