Sure. A brief summary:

Short mode:

...

[drzeus at poseidon]$ ./lshal -m
computer
acpi_PWRF
...
pnp_PNP0c02
pnp_WEC0518_mmc_host removed
pnp_WEC0518_mmc_host added

Tree mode:

[drzeus at poseidon]$ ./lshal -t

Version:

[drzeus at poseidon]$ ./lshal -V
lshal version 0.5.4

New help:

[drzeus at poseidon]$ ./lshal -h
lshal version 0.5.4

usage : /home/drzeus/Development/hal/tools/.libs/lt-lshal [options]

Options:
    -m, --monitor        Monitor device list
    -l, --long           Long output
    -t, --tree           Tree view
    -s, --show <udi>     Show only the specified device
    -h, --help           Show this information and exit
    -V, --version        Print version number

Shows all devices and their properties. If the --monitor option is given
then the device list and all devices are monitored for changes.
