I know, it is not a typed command option, but nevertheless it is the next best thing to sliced bread in the CLI arena :D

-l
Using rpm, I can easily use rpm -q <package> -l | less and get a scrollable list of the files of a certain package. Useful for tracking down obscure config files and the like.

I would have to say I use the old tar zxf alot. I also use the --help constantly :(
