hi all,  
 
i was searching for a -v output too ... the idea behind is to give out ONLY 
the version and not the whole help of soffice binary.  
 
if you do  
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -h 
 
you will get the whole help output. it is also strange that if you use an 
unknown argument, then soffice starts directly instead of outputting the help. 
i know that if the argument is not recognised, it is interpreted as filename 
to open. theoretically it should be that every argument starting with "-" 
should be interperted as command line option and not filename ... i tried 
first to run 
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice --help  
 
but this was interperted as "--help" filename that do not exist. ... it should 
fall back to -h if the argument is not known. but this is another thing (maybe 
i should open a bug on this wrong behaviour) ...  
 
i wanted soffice to return directly only the version and used this workaround: 
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -h 2>&1 | grep Build 
OpenOffice.org 1.9.122  680m122(Build:8941) 
  
as you can see, it works fine, but this should - in my eyes - be built-in the 
binary itself. so ideally it shoulud behave like this: 
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -v 
OpenOffice.org 1.9.122  680m122(Build:8941) 
 
==> please reopen this bug
