Committed.

I never took much care about the output of commands to make them
friendly to automated crunching (for example, output varies according
to which tool you have for downloading files, unpacking archives,
etc.) -- I always used print() liberally, just to make output for the
user to read. In other words, I never consciously restricted myself to
keep the output unchanged across versions.

Ideally, there should be script-friendly variants of the commands
(like Steve did the various flags for 'show').

I'll try to think what's the best way to do this, but don't hold your
breath: I feel command-line flags need a general review.
