&gt; &gt; 	I think that coldcc's args parser needs to be toughened 
&gt; &gt; up to avoid a little problem I just encountered.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; 	coldcc -d -#
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; 		means decompile from binary to textdump, use object names
&gt; &gt; 		instead of numbers when writing out the text...
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; 	coldcc -#d
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; 		actually compiles from textdump to binary.
&gt; 
&gt; You can't merge args--each is a seperate entity to allow for followup
&gt; information to the arg (i.e. -s10x40)

Mmm.  I can merge args, and it has unexpected sideeffects and hoses
my db.  I shouldn't be *able* to merge args though.  I should get
some kinda error message.

&gt; &gt; Sucky.
&gt; 
&gt; Mmm, depends upon your POV :)

My POV is that if -#d doesn't exist then -#d should be flagged in error.

&gt; I can have it explained a little better in -h

don't mek me come over there and shout at ya

&gt; -Brandon

Ay. ;)
