When I read Avi's TODO, I basically thought about getting rid of the
long command lines I had to store in scripts. I wanted to write that
command line once, and then forgetting about it, until I needed to
change it.
Instead of inventing great and wonderfully complicated schemes, the
most sensible way I can think of is to recycle a feature which is now
implemented in the GNU toolchain, and apparently stems from Windows:
qemu @qemu.cfg
where qemu.cfg is a file which contains the command line arguments.
(This is also low-maintenance, as it allows to re-use the existing
IMHO, it should be implemented at the shell level, not qemu level,
like "*" is.
The shell _does_ implement it: qemu `cat qemu.cfg` :-)
If you want "@" anyway, you can pick up the code from libiberty
(or just build with libiberty).
