Thanks for the report.
Now --help output (and hence the man page) includes this:

  -c, --complement        first complement SET1
  -d, --delete            delete characters in SET1, do not translate
  -s, --squeeze-repeats   replace each input sequence of a repeated character
                            that is listed in SET1 with a single occurrence
                            of that character
  -t, --truncate-set1     first truncate SET1 to length of SET2
      --help     display this help and exit
      --version  output version information and exit
