John,

Does the pneumonic have to be one character or can it be a word? I would
think -multi would work.


Best regards from Ohio, U.S.A.,

Hi Vic,

That is good to hear. It means that some suspected bugs aren't there. If 
having to type exit is too much of a bother multiple subcommannds can be 
enabled by an option. I'm having a little difficulty coming up with a 
good mnnemonic name for that optionn.
