digitalmars.D - LDC, GDC command line args

I've been googling for a comprehensive list of LDC and GDC command
line args for ages. I can't find one.

I have had to download and install both compilers just to run the --help.

Can these compilers please both have such a document in an obvious
accessible place like DMD has?

How did you get there? Even knowing it exists, I can't find a path to
that page from other pages...

Is this complete and up to date?
I have '-fdeprecated' in some existing makefiles, but this doc says
'-Wdeprecated' is the flag... not sure which is correct? :/
Also, there seems to be a lot of flags missing:
  deprecated as error
  deprecated as warning
  boundscheck=safeonly
  emit coverage
  emit deps
  profile, profile=gc
  addmain

easiest way would be to write a script to parse the output of ldc 
--help
and print out as a table in mediawiki syntax (I did the current 
addition manually).

Shouldn't be too hard, but I don't have much time atm.

Don't; just use `ldc2 -help`. This is the perfect example of a 
problem that doesn't need a solution. Downloading and extracting 
the binary package (or installing the distro package) is easy 
enough.
