Marc,

The help summary page (found by running nmap with no arguments, or here: 
http://nmap.org/book/man-briefoptions.html) is designed to showcase the 
most common options in a short format that can be easily read through. 
It currently clocks in at 112 lines. By my count, there are about 174 
useful options (that is, not easter-egg). These are documented in the 
Nmap man page (http://nmap.org/book/man.html). --disable-arp-ping is 
specifically in the Host Discovery section 
(http://nmap.org/book/man-host-discovery.html#idm226644043744)

Dan

P.S. If you want a helpful tool for remembering Nmap's options, and your 
shell is Bash, check out my nmap-completion scripts:
