Hi,
I wanted to clean up the command line options a little (to make gimp
even more perfect:) and so i made some changes to not just the
formatting, but also the options themselves. I just wanted to see what
other people think of this, and if the -v -> -V change will affect
anyone adversely.
Heres the new output:
Usage: gimp [option ... ] [file ... ]
Options:
-b, --batch <commands> Run in batch mode.
-c, --console-messages Display warnings to console instead of a
dialog box.
-d, --no-data Do not load brushes, gradients, palettes,
patterns.
-g, --gimprc <gimprc> Use an alternate gimprc file.
-h, --help Output this help.
-n, --no-interface Run without a user interface.
-r, --restore-session Try to restore saved session.
-s, --no-splash Do not show the startup window.
-S, --no-splash-image Do not add an image to the startup window.
-v, --verbose Show startup messages.
-V, --version Output version information.
--no-shm Do not use shared memory between GIMP and
plugins.
--no-xshm Do not use the X Shared Memory extension.
--debug-handlers Enable non-fatal debugging signal
handlers.
--display <display> Use the designated X display.
--system-gimprc <gimprc> Use an alternate system gimprc file.
--enable-stack-trace <never | query | always>
Debugging mode for fatal signals.
I'd also like to know if there's any reason why a long option, like
"--console-messages" _shouldn't_ have a short option (like "-c").
Thanks,
- Piers
