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 David 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. -- "Is our system--was it invented by scientists?" "No. If scientists had invented it, they'd have tried it out first on hamsters."
