I like that idea! But then you have to choose between names and numbers. Naming (and documenting!) that many options is hard work. Numbers aren't as aesthetically pleasing. Tough choice, and a significant amount of work either way. Maybe it's not worth it. I'll bet that this isn't something that's likely to come up very often, so maybe I should just patch my copy of automake. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
