I can certainly rewrite the Makefile (I wrote the \"first draft\" of this program about a year ago when goinstall seemed less ready for prime time).\r\n\r\nI keep going back and forth on the second issue, though.  Personally, I much prefer it the way it is, but I take the point about crowding the command namespace.  It would be possible, of course, to make it one command and alias the others (making the namespace problem a local issue), but the options parsing would probably get more tedious and, I think, make the tool less easy to use.\r\n\r\nAlso: I changed -v back to -V.  -v seems more logical to me, but the POSIX standard actually says otherwise.  -v is supposed to be for verbose.","assignee":null,"id":2415624,"pull_request":{"patch_url":null,"html_url":null,"diff_url":null},"labels":[],"number":10,"title":"single command","html_url":"https://github.com/sramsay/conditions/issues/10","closed_at":null,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/sramsay/conditions/issues/10","milestone":null},"action":"opened"}
