+This command lists the tag names used in the journal, whether on
+transactions, postings, or account declarations.
+
+With a TAGREGEX argument, only tag names matching this regular
+expression (case insensitive, infix matched) are shown.
+
+With QUERY arguments, only transactions and accounts matching this query
+are considered. If the query involves transaction fields (date:, desc:,
+amt:, ...), the search is restricted to the matched transactions and
+their accounts.
+
+With the --values flag, the tags' unique non-empty values are listed
+instead. With -E/--empty, blank/empty values are also shown.
+
+With --parsed, tags or values are shown in the order they were parsed,
+with duplicates included. (Except, tags from account declarations are
+always shown first.)
+
+Tip: remember, accounts also acquire tags from their parents, postings
+also acquire tags from their account and transaction, transactions also
+acquire tags from their postings.
