I've seen a number of emails flying around that show some nice aliases

aliases to quickly execute basic en-US book builds.
When we build a book, I would imagine most people would want to
publish en-US versions initially. So why don't we set this as the
default language in command-line arguments, rather than having to
specify it each time?
So instead of executing "publican build -langs=en-US -formats html",
it would simply be "publican build -formats html".
For those users who need to generate language-specific versions, they
could override the default by specifying the --langs option when they
execute their publish command.
There might be other ways we can shorten what users need to type as
well. How about a "-formats online" option which generates html, and
html-single (possibly even ePub).
Thoughts?

"There I fixed it" - the wonders of open source. :-)
Untested and unsupported, usual disclaimers apply.
Probably a better way to do it would be to have a per-user
publican.defaults file with default behaviour information in it, and
maybe a system-wide one in /etc, or something like that.
