Hello,

I would like to request 2 things for urpmi.addmedia.
The format is now like this:
ftp://<host>/<path> with <relative filename of hdlist>

1. Make the "with" optional.
I mean, let this format also be a good format:
ftp://<host>/<path> <relative filename of hdlist>
When I switched from apt to urpmi some time ago the "with" was the thing I really
stumbled over. In the manpage I read it as part of the sentence, not as part of the 
command.
And I don't think it should really be necessary.

2. Use a default hdlist.cz
Right now you have to specify an hdlist file, and its relative path.
Mostly it will just be ../base/hdlist.cz, so why not make that the default.
So if there is no hdlist in the command, use the default.
Yes, I'm lazy at typing :-) 
But mostly I am just annoyed when it barks back at me after typing a command
which is valid to me, but not to urpmi.addmedia.


Greetings,
