The new CLI syntax looks nice.
(It'll be really nice when it's fully debugged. At present, there's one bug
I know of: '-A' for 'no auto redirect' doesn't work - this can be reproduced
by inserting a plain text KSK without metadata.)
The Windows command line clients run the java command line classes, and pass
hardwired arguments to them, namely '-serverAddress tcp/127.0.0.1:portnum'.
The args are hardwired into flaunch.ini
Now this has changed to '--serverAddress' or '-s', the Winstaller needs to
write the changed syntax to flaunch.ini. Fortunately trivial, but this would
be a nasty one to overlook.
Cheers

So Thelema wrote his own parser and put it in the two clients. But I
think he's planning to switch to getopt, because he added the its two
files to Freenet/support/. Thelema?
Anyway, don't you just want to strangle Sun for leaving getopt out of
the Java API? Fucking idiots.
