["Emmanuel Bourg (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Emmanuel Bourg updated CLI-192:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
If I have a command line which supports "-o"
or equivalently "--option", and "-foo", then

--foo o

gets interpreted as if I had typed "--foo -o", i.e. the "o" is (wrongly) seen as an option
instead of an argument to "--foo". Foo then (wrongly) has no arguments.

  was:
