-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 $ rm --p rm: option `--p' is ambiguous Try `rm --help' for more information.
Yet `rm --help' only mentions --preserve-root, since --presume-input-tty is intentionally undocumented. Is there a slick way to tell getopt_long that a particular option must not be abbreviated, and therefore that it cannot be ambiguous with other options that can be abbreviated? It boils down to the fact that for all undocumented long options, we don't want to be accepting abbreviations or confusing the user with false reports of ambiguous options. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
