This always bugged me too. I added the patch to provide -q and a variety of
other options. Fixed in 17mdk

description:
The man page for the nc (netcat) programme lists an option -q. -q however
*doesnt work* with the version of nc shipped by MDK.
The man page for nc has been taken straight from the debian nc package. The
debian version of the nc binary supports the -q option, however the binary
shipped by MDK *doesnt* support -q. But -q is listed in the manpage supplied by
MDK.
Is it possible to remove the -q entry from the manpage shipped with the MDK
version of nc?
