The message can be provided as one or more arguments as depicted by
message1 to messageN; all arguments are concatenated together into a sin‐
gle line.

directly caused by an invalid invocation of the script. For errors
caused directly by the user, such as specifying an incorrect flag to the
program, should be reported using shtk_cli_usage_error(3).
