Hi All,

I would like to propose a small improvement to "factor" help message:
indicate factor capabilities. As it depends on how factor has been
compiled (with or without GMP library), I propose the attached patch.

What do you think of that ?

It is my first patch here, so I'm sorry if I send this message to the
wrong list. 

Best regards
