Whoohoo, I guess there were only UNIXers present at that discussion. E.g. no Windows person will ever intuitively try to use a double dash for arguments, that is a total UNIX-like habbit. So why not sticking to the cross-platform Java'istic approach we had (and maybe just adding the shortcuts as option?) > Hopefully this doesn't ruffle anyone's dander too much. If there happened any discussion in the mailing list, then I missed it. Changing the user interfaces is not a trivial thing (however trivial the changes might have been), as a) all docs, manuals, faqs and tutorials have to be checked for updating if we don't want to end up with (even more) outdated documentation and b) consistency in interfaces is a nice thing as well. I can already see all the support mails, saying: Feature X worked in 0.3.9.1 but it is broken in 0.3.9.2 So I am not saying that it is a bad change itself, but I would have preferred a bit of discussion (besides IRC) about user interface changes.
