Bug#422466: dasher: command line options don't work

[Roland Stigge]

Package: dasher
Version: 4.4.1-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

the man page of dasher(1) says:

===============================================================================
OPTIONS
       dasher takes the following options:

       -o     Dasher  will  appear without a text edit box and will default to
              entering text into other windows.

       -p     Dasher will open a preferences window and not the main window.

       -s     Dasher will output the entered text to stdout whenever  stopped.
              Only text entered since the last stop will be output.

       -w     Whenever Dasher is stopped, the time taken, number of characters
              entered, and number of bits of information  will  be  displayed,
              along with ratios of these quantities.
===============================================================================

However, each of those options makes dasher complain that it can't find the
respective input file , e.g. '-o'.

Thanks for considering.

bye,
  Roland
