Another idea is to put a string that tells
about the request to cite the author's/ organizations
names when the program exits.
so if there is a command by name g.command
then
g.command
or
g.command -h
can have a one/two line string that tells about
the author.
ex:
Author: Real Sample
Please Cite source if published.
At least this way people may not forget to cite.
