- .SH BUGS
- When a non-multivalued argument appears more than once on the command-line
- then only the last value supplied is used. A problem occurs however in the
- following scenario: suppose `\fB\-s\fP' is an option that takes an optional
- string argument (and suppose `\fB\-x\fP' is some boolean flag). Now, if the
- following command-line is issued:
-
- .XS
- command \-s string \-x \-s
- .XE
-
- then, even though it may appear as if the value used will properly correspond
- to the second instance of the `\fB\-s\fP' option, the value associated with
- the option will be ``\fIstring\fP'' (because the first instance overwrote
- the default and the second instance left the value untouched).
