Full-form command line options #85

Closed samuelznewton closed 3 months ago

samuelznewton commented 3 years ago

This is not at all a serious issue, but I often prefer using full-form command line options (e.g. --help instead of -h), and these are strangely absent from KDocker. No pressure, but if you had a couple minutes to add those in, they would at least see a little use from me. :)

Great idea! You've got the job :) -- KDocker options are a mess.

  1. Make a list of all the full-form options you would suggest (you can drop them as a comment in this thread for future reference).
  2. Even if you're not a C++ hacker, clone the KDocker repo
  3. Hack the pod file (pretty version) that the man page is built from ( using kdocker_man.sh )
  4. Try hacking the KDocker::printHelp() function in kdocker.cpp
  5. Congratulate yourself on your progress :)
  6. Consider moving to the next level by perusing ketopt
  7. Leave any other thoughts you have, here. I'm sure it'll help. Maybe others will contribute suggestions or even pull requests for your project.

Okay, I might try some of this when I have some time! This semester has been super busy so far though, so I don't know for sure when that might be.

This is added to v6.0 (not yet released).
