+* ``'count'`` - This counts the number of times a keyword argument occurs.
+  This is useful for increasing verbosity levels. For example::
+
+    >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+    >>> parser.add_argument('--verbose', '-v', action='count')
+    >>> parser.parse_args('-vvv'.split())
+    Namespace(verbose=3)
+
+* ``'help'`` - This prints a complete help message for all the options in the
+    current parser and then exits. By default a help action is automatically 
+    added to the parser. See :class:`ArgumentParser` for details of how the
+    output is created.
+
 * ``'version'`` - This expects a ``version=`` keyword argument in the
   :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` call, and prints version information
   and exits when invoked.
