Unmark and mark command usage message parameters does not show that [t/TELEGRAM] can be used multiple times

[lim-jt]

Under the usage message parameter of the mark and unmark command, the parameter t/TELEGRAM is not indicated to allow multiple times, while the example suggests that it is possible. The correct format should have included an ellipsis '...' behind t/TELEGRAM.

Team's Response

Thank you for your observation. We would like to clarify the following points:

The example provided in the error message, mark t/alexYeoh t/berniceYu d/2024-10-21, clearly demonstrates that our command allows for multiple t/TELEGRAM inputs. This example should make it evident to users that the mark command supports multiple entries for the t/TELEGRAM parameter.

Additionally, the User Guide explicitly explains the functionality, reinforcing that multiple telegram inputs are permitted. If a user has not referred to the User Guide, adding an ellipsis (...) behind t/TELEGRAM may still be unclear, as the meaning of this notation might not be immediately apparent without reading the documentation. Given that the existing examples already illustrate this capability, we consider this issue to be cosmetic in nature that doesn't affect usage.

Moreover, the command behavior given by this error message follows the behavior provided in user guide, the problem is that the parameter part of error message is not detailed and specific enough, so this issue more appropriate to be considered as feature flaw instead of functionality bug.

Thanks for raising the issue and we hope this explanation provides clarity on our rationale.
