I don't know whether a short > option -T will help them.. Eh - there are enough unused single letters that having a short version of the --silent-truncation option should not cause any grief. The option itself is certainly useful - for example in the linker and binutils testsuites - and I am sure that there are some people who will want to use it for their own scripts/build systems. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
