Bug#350047: pilot-link: --exclude option poorly documented

 Package: pilot-link
 Version: 0.11.8-17
 Severity: normal
 
 The --exclude option is so poorly documented that I had to look at the
 source to figure out how it worked.  The exclude file must have one name
 per line and the extension (e.g. .prc, .pdb) must be omitted.  Having
 spaces in the name is okay.

I guess you are talking agout the pilot-xfer command?

 Adding a sentence or two to the manual page should be enough fix this
 bug, IMO.

This text has evolved in the 0.12.0-pre series of pilot-link.
Is text below OK for you?

   -e, --exclude=file
  Reads a list of databases from  file  and  prevents  --backup,
  --sync, or --update from operating on the listed database(s).  A
  maximum of 100 databases can be excluded.  Databases  should  be
  specified  by  name  without  the  extension,  as displayed with
  --list, in any order.

If not can you give me the sentences you would like to see?

Thanks,
