-p does not print response headers, -g does not allow file (-f) for URLs #148

I've got a list of URLs I want to hit with siege. I want to print the response headers, as i'm looking for some specific X headers to debug some issues under load.

However, siege does not seem to allow this. First, in the help:

  -g, --get                 GET, pull down HTTP headers and display the
                            transaction. Great for application debugging.
  -p, --print               PRINT, like GET only it prints the entire page.

If I do siege with -g, I get response headers:

However, siege with -g does not work with a URL list:

edwards-mbp-pro:Desktop aaron$ siege -g -f apple-url.txt 
ERROR: -g/--get requires a commandline URL
edwards-mbp-pro:Desktop aaron$

Then switched to using -p, which should behave like -g but show full content, the response shows the content but not the response headers:

edwards-mbp-pro:Desktop aaron$ siege -p http://captive.apple.com

However, -p DOES work great with a URL file:

edwards-mbp-pro:Desktop aaron$ siege -p -f apple-url.txt

Ideally, would be really nice for siege to do one or both of the following:
