Update of /cvsroot/monetdb/clients/src/mapiclient In directory sc8-pr-cvs16.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv2455/src/mapiclient
Modified Files: MapiClient.mx Log Message: Coalesced mclient's -o and -f options into a single -f (output format) option.
The -o option was used to specify output formatting for XQuery, whereas -f was used to specify output formatting for the other languages. Now the same option is used for both (similar) functions.
This also frees up -o for a future, possible -o output file option.
Is there a chance the two could be switched? -f traditionally is in use for [f]ile. JdbcClient also happens to have implemented the -f flag like that.
And -o has traditionally been used for output file. I find -f more logical for output formatting. But in the end it doesn't really matter. -- Sjoerd Mullender
