Re: [Nmh-workers] Exit status when argument is -version

2012-06-06 11:39:48
The exit status of for, example, "sortm -version" or "scan -version"
is not zero. Shouldn't it be. It was in a very old version of nmh,
nmh-1.2-20070115cvs.

AFAICT ... it's always been that way.  We didn't have -version back in
MH-6.8.5, but at least as far as our sources go back (1999) -version has
always exited with an exit code of 1.

Should it?  I dunno ... what do people think?
