Hey Matt - It's the other way round;

help <command>

i.e.:

(lldb) help memory write
    Write to the memory of the process being debugged.

Syntax: memory write <cmd-options> <address> <value> [<value> [...]]

Command Options Usage:
   memory write [-f <format>] [-s <byte-size>] <address> <value> 
[<value> [...]]

Cheers,
Colin
