Inherited from mkisofs for the emulation. (xorriso native commands are recognized with as many dashes as you want.) I could make it tolerate double-dash if this is desired. > Perhaps we shouldn't use argp for parsing arguments in mkrescue but own, > simpler code. My main question is whether you want the user interface of grub-mkrescue to change between GRUB2 versions 2.00 and 2.02. If so, then let's make a plan for a new user documentation and determine what xorrisofs needs to learn in order to implement its share of that documentation. If the user interface shall not change, then i propose to implement the semantics of the arguments loop of grub-mkrescue.in inside grub-mkrescue.c. Have a nice day :) Thomas
