Yes, as I wrote earlier, the scripts are being totally rewritten, both for
easier maintenance and for helping in a transition away from CVS.
You're totally right, I forgot to implement a few of the old options.
-Q (be really quiet) and -l (show log entries) should now work (although I
should mention that the combination really doesn't make sense, as all the logs
are redirected to /dev/null if you specify -l and -Q).
The -c (set charset for mails) option is obsolete. The charsets are now
automatically detected from the settings in language/.wmlrc. (At least,
they should be; please let me know if it doesn't work correctly.)
The other options that are missing are -C (go to directory before
running this script), which seems rather silly to me, and -M (display
differences for all 'Makefile's), which I still need to implement
(assuming it is actually being used).
Also note that the output of the script might have (slightly) changed.
I've tried to make it clearer and more userfriendly, using colours to
distinguish the different statusses of files, but please let me know if
that poses any problems. Of course, the rewritten script probably also
has other bugs; please let me know if you encounter one.
Thanks,
Bas.
