Dear List,

i was struggeling with the right syntax to have plugins running within 
freerdp. The most recent man page (i build freerdp from git today) explains 
to use freerdp as follows:

xfreerdp [options] server[:port] [[options] server[:port] ...]

So (imho) this should work:
xfreerdp -u username -p secret --plugin rdpdr --data disk:mydrive:/tmp 
otc-tserver

But it claims about "missing server name".

Because of the above mentioned error, my next try was:
xfreerdp -u username -p secret otc-tserver --plugin rdpdr --data 
disk:mydrive:/tmp

This works but ignores all the stuff right of the servername. So i was 
wondering (a long time), why the folder-redirection did not came up.

Recently it worked with:
xfreerdp -u username -p secret --plugin rdpdr --data disk:mydrive:/tmp -- 
otc-tserver

Of course, not a big issue, but confusing. The man page should explain this 
more clearly or freerdp should be more tollerant understanding the 
parameters. Btw: The man page delivered with git is a lot shorter than this 
old one i found.

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man1/xfreerdp.1.html

Is help welcome maintaining the manpage?

Regards, Jörn
