Documentation is busted, oops.  However, none of the standard heat arguments 
use a colon.  The other things are extensions and are not part of heat.  The 
colon was unusual compared to most of the other options.  It doesn't help that 
light is confused (like -cultures <sigh/>).

Colons have been issues due to tab completion and I've heard PowerShell 
integration (I don't actually use PowerShell so that's all secondhand).  Those 
reasons are why we've avoided the colon for most cases and instead use spaces 
(or no space).

Thoughts?

(documentation definitely needs to be fixed if it stays this way).

Subject: [WiX-devs] Heat change -indent

One of my Heat changes was implemented slightly differently to how I did
it. I implemented -indent:<n> but it was implemented -indent<n>, the
reason I included the colon was to match WiXCop and some of the other
Heat options (e.g. -t, -template and -pog) plus I think it is more
legible. (The Heat documentation was also written to include the colon
so would need revising.)

Please could the colon be put back?

Thanks

Neil
