Hi,

  The code for getting options from the command line is:

     &GetOptions(\%main::options, 'dump|s:s', 'debug|d', 'foreground',
            'config|f=s', 'lang|l=s', 'mail|m', 'keepcopy|k=s');
 
  I'm wondering is the Getopt configuration for 'dump' is right since
  the Getopt::Long manpage tells :

        : type [ desttype ]
           Like `=', but designates the argument as optional.  If
           omitted, an empty string will be assigned to string
           values options, and the value zero to numeric options.

           Note that if a string argument starts with `-' or
           `--', it will be considered an option on itself.
 
  However, parameters to dump are mandatory, so 's=s' might replace
  's:s', am I wrong?
