Thanks, it wasn't documented either, that you can omit
recipient addresses after -a. So I have to change
[-a <file> [...]] [--] <addr> [...]
to
[-a <file> [...] [-- <addr>] [<addr> [...]]
or
[[-a <file> [...] [-- <addr> [...]] | [<addr> [...]]]
if I stick with this implementation.
I hope the real programmers discussing on this topic will
find a better way. ;)
