I think it's being a little bit too clever. If I'm correct in my assumption that there's a problem with the current -o,--output option(s) in meld, and they fix it, then fossil would need to figure out if it's a fixed or unfixed meld being used. It's better to document it with examples (including possible caveats), and make sure the documentation is easy to find. -- Kind regards, Jan Danielsson
