Package: gnome-mag Version: 1:0.13.1-1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I've just tried magnifier this way: $ magnifier And apart a few warnings, nothing came out. Then I digged into --help, and tried a bunch of options before realizing that one needs to specify either -v, -h or -f. Not only this is not documented, but it is not very easy to find out. It would hence be useful to: - rephrase --help a bit: Usage: magnifier -v | -h | -f [OPTION...] For documenting that -v/-h/-f is needed - complain if none of -v/-h/-f is given (and tell that one of them should be given). - use -v by default (for instance), so that just running "magnifier" alone will at least provide some result.
