File paths on the command line

[lucaswerkmeister]

Current behavior

• No file paths: “pipe mode”, read stdin, write stdout.
• 1 file path: read and write that file, or recursively that directory.
• 2 file paths: read from first and write to second file, or recursively from first to second directory.
• More file paths: read from files 1..(n-1), write to directory n.

  Desired behavior

• Pipe mode can stay.
• ceylon run ceylon.formatter source definitely stays.
• ceylon run ceylon.formatter source test-source would be nice…
• but there should still be a way to have separate source and target files / directories.

Maybe ceylon run ceylon.formatter source --to target, ceylon run ceylon.formatter source/tmp --and /run.ceylon source/tmp/module.ceylon --to formatted_source?

[lucaswerkmeister]

Yeah, I think I’ll go with --and and --to.
