-compose is not documented in "man thunderbird"

[Mark Stosberg]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

"man thunderbird" fails to document the -compose option. This option is very useful if you are on the command line and want to launch a new email message composition window with a given file attached.

The "man" page is a natural place to document command line options, since it's a kind of help that is commonly accessed from the command line.

For documentation on -compose and more undocumented options see here:
