But this name, --label-nested, it... doesn't sound very English, it is not how one would say this in English. Upcoming patch changes it to --nested-label, also because when using long options it is enough to use the first few letters of an option to choose one unequivocally, but when having both --label and --label-nested one can no longer do something like "--lab bsd". After the patch one can do that again, /and/ use "--nest bsd" too, which is short and very clear. Benno -- http://www.fastmail.fm - IMAP accessible web-mail
