I'm sorry to keep harping along...and wasting your time, especially
since your posts have been very helpful to me for, literally, yrs on
this list.

Maybe I'm missing some posts... I only see one by Paul in this thread,
and it doesn't mention anything about Perl::Critic.

Are we even talking about the same program... Perl::Critic/perlcritic?

For me, it just blows up with piles of help information when I use `-c':

perlcritic -c ./psr

 perlcritic -c ./psr
Option c is ambiguous (color, color-severity-1, color-severity-2, 
color-severity-3, color-severity-4, color-severity-5, color-severity-high, 
color-severity-highest, color-severity-low, color-severity-lowest, 
color-severity-medium, colour, colour-severity-1, colour-severity-2, 
colour-severity-3, colour-severity-4, colour-severity-5, colour-severity-high, 
colour-severity-highest, colour-severity-low, colour-severity-lowest, 
colour-severity-medium, count, cruel)
Usage:
      perlcritic [-12345 | --brutal | --cruel | --harsh | --stern | --gentle]
                 [--severity number | name] [{-p | --profile} file | 
--noprofile]
                 [--top [ number ]] [--theme expression] [--include pattern]

      [snip<8---snip<8]


Without the -c it just returns:

  perlcritic ./psr
   ./psr source OK


However, it does appear to have a series of progressively severe
flags: --gentle, --stern, --harsh, --cruel and --brutal.

Hehe...

Going right to brutal gives reams of suggestions and many lines where
things are not .. `tidy'

So... away we go again...

   thanks.
