I saw it as variants of three existing options rather than three new options but i don't think it will make much difference. My knowledge of popt is nearly null but i have to ask is there positional dependency? is rsync --from0 --files-from=- the same as rsync --files-from=- --from0 ? If not that should be at least noted in the manpage. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.
