Yes. Using -c1 works as well at my Debian testing machine. T-prot's
command line processing is all handled by Getopt::Long, so I guess
we're stuck here. I'm sorry.
It might be a good idea to reassign this bug to Getopt::Long, as
it's this module which does not work as advertised. Otherwise (if
the Getopt::Long developers don't see any necessity to fix this)
I might just change t-prot's documentation.
Thanks for reporting!
Jochen.
