 You can also give a Nix expression on the command line:
 
 ```console
-$ nix-instantiate -E 'with import <nixpkgs> { }; hello'
+$ nix-instantiate --expr 'with import <nixpkgs> { }; hello'
 /nix/store/j8s4zyv75a724q38cb0r87rlczaiag4y-hello-2.8.drv
 ```
 
 This is equivalent to:
 
 ```console
-$ nix-instantiate '<nixpkgs>' -A hello
+$ nix-instantiate '<nixpkgs>' --attr hello
 ```
 
 Parsing and evaluating Nix expressions:
