Yes. Using -c1 works as well at my Debian testing machine. T-prot's command line processing is all handled by Getopt::Long, so I guess we're stuck here. I'm sorry. It might be a good idea to reassign this bug to Getopt::Long, as it's this module which does not work as advertised. Otherwise (if the Getopt::Long developers don't see any necessity to fix this) I might just change t-prot's documentation. Thanks for reporting!
