You can send it to me to test.  I've duplicated the reported behavior
here so I can test the fix.  (Ideally, send me a url to downloaded it
from rather than attaching it.)

Just a thought, a corresponding option of --batch/-B could be added to do
the opposite of the --interactive/-I option.  Having options to override
dynamically detected configuration is not all that uncommon.

Thanks.

PS. Beware of the first patch I sent -- it had a bug in the string sent
to getopt.  It had an option "M" rather than "I".  The second patch was
corrected.
