The reason I used -cfast instead of -c fast or --checkpoint=fast is that the way perltidy formats leads to very wide lines already, and making them even longer seemed unattractive... Given the -cfast syntax successfully passed tests on at least AIX, freebsd, linux, macos, netbsd, openbsd, windows msvc, windows msys, I'm not too worried about portability either.
