Well, the smarter way would be to add the alias directly to the Getopt::Long options, and then make all functions use the same form, but I did not want to disturb the semantic distinction between the singular and plural forms in the code.
Actually, I find this is a valuable semantic distinction for me as a user as well. Because you can perform some actions on multiple languages at a time, and some actions on only one language at a time, having to type the correct option helps me keep these separate in my mind.
If the --lang and --langs options were to be mashed together, we'd really need an error message for the actions that can only be performed on one language at a time that says something like "You can only package one language at a time."
Then of course people might wonder why we have an option called "langs" that only allows you to perform an action on a single language.
Maybe we should just leave it as it is. Cheers Rudi _______________________________________________ publican-list mailing list publican-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/publican-list Wiki: https://fedorahosted.org/publican
