I'd love to, but I've had VERY little time to work on this stuff lately. I still have some local diffs to clean up & submit to autoconf-patches, and I also need to build some DJGPP packages at some point (last time I tried I got many testsuite failures, but didn't have the time to investigate). > But I'd 3 is s/rest of the/whole/. Sure, that would allow us to keep all of the current command-line handling code as-is.
