Re: Interesting handling of command line arguments

Ah, OK. What happens is that --help and and --version are
preprocessed in the C code to set a "do it and then kill emacs" flag.
However, abbreviated versions aren't recognized by the Lisp code that
processes most arguments (because it uses `assoc').
Do you prefer that we accept abbreviations, or did you actually want
a
file named --he? It's easy enough to do either.
Upps, thinking.. I would say, that creating a file "--he" would
be consistent, since -he creates a new file. So, everything that
doesn't match a command line option is a file...
