While you're at it, I have a little request. nik2img fooled me a number
of times with this. When I do a normal request:
nik2img map.xml parameter parameter parameter...
it works fine. Then I put this in a shell wrapper like this:
cat list-of-mapfiles | while read mapfile
do
nik2img $mapfile parameter parameter parameter ...
done
and suddenly: Nothing but complaints about not being able to parse the
map file!
Turns out that somehow nik2img tries to magically detect if a map file
can be read from stdin; in the second invocation, it actually inherits
the pipe on stdin from the shell loop and tries to read its map file
from stdin.
It would be good if that could be fixed somehow. Maybe by just dropping
support for reading mapfiles from stdin, or if you want that you should
explicitly specify "-" on the command line.
