Confused myself just now with the snowball compiler - is there any
chance the usage statement could be a bit more unixy? Just needs
something like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage: {{argv[0]}} file
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
instead of:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
options are: file ...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When run on its own, it's fine, but as part of a build script,
incorrect invocation of the compiler makes it look like there's a
problem with the build system calling find(1), as that's in
preferential place in the current usage message...
