I think that the issue is that "--" is interpreted to mean that
should be interpreted as a single string, but "-" is interpreted to mean
that each letter of should be interpreted individually.
This is a fairly common Linux/POSIX/GNU convention.
As for "--host" vs. "--hosts", we initially got
would it be easier if the option was --host instead of -host ?
I guess changing the cli is not an option for the v1.x series, so what
about adding the -hosts option (alias to -host option) ?
I made the same mistake a few times before, adding a s to hosts looks more
intuitive for me.

Fair point.
I don't know if there's an easy way to fix that, though.

Hi,
Playing with the 1.10.0 (just released) build I found a cosmetic misleading
error message in mpirun. If by mistake you type -hosts (with an extra "s"),
the error message complains about an unknown "-o" option that is actually not
being used. Typing the parameters correctly fixes the issue
