Summary

currently nano_wallet --help shows a window with the help text

Command line options:
  --help                                Print out options
  --config arg                          Pass configuration values. This takes 
                                        precedence over any values in the node 
                                        configuration file. This option can be 
                                        repeated multiple times.
  --rpcconfig arg                       Pass RPC configuration values. This 
                                        takes precedence over any values in the
                                        RPC configuration file. This option can
                                        be repeated multiple times.

maybe this is done because nano_wallet is a gui app
but usually, gui desktop users will run nano_wallet and look for a help menu in the gui
instead of running nano_wallet --help from the gui desktop
