------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Aug 5 10:06:19 -0700 2005 ------- hi all, i was searching for a -v output too ... the idea behind is to give out ONLY the version and not the whole help of soffice binary. if you do [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -h you will get the whole help output. it is also strange that if you use an unknown argument, then soffice starts directly instead of outputting the help. i know that if the argument is not recognised, it is interpreted as filename to open. theoretically it should be that every argument starting with "-" should be interperted as command line option and not filename ... i tried first to run [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice --help but this was interperted as "--help" filename that do not exist. ... it should fall back to -h if the argument is not known. but this is another thing (maybe i should open a bug on this wrong behaviour) ... i wanted soffice to return directly only the version and used this workaround: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -h 2>&1 | grep Build OpenOffice.org 1.9.122 680m122(Build:8941) as you can see, it works fine, but this should - in my eyes - be built-in the binary itself. so ideally it shoulud behave like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /opt/openoffice2/program/soffice -v OpenOffice.org 1.9.122 680m122(Build:8941) ==> please reopen this bug --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
