man-page is correct, it's the --help output that is broken

The problem is, that the default value for the previous parameter is ESC ("\033").
The argparse module prints the default values at the end of the help-string, without caring about the fact, that this parameter is not printable.

This problem needs some more investigation. I may use argparse wrong, or it is a bug in that module.
