It makes little sense to pass a directory when you can pass a config
file and assume that the directory the config file is in is the CWD.

In fact, most people having designed bundle-type document formats came to a different conclusion: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_ (NEXTSTEP)>. Typically, bundles are opaque and appear like a single file to the desktop user.

[...] And then do:

qemu -c MyImage/vm.cfg

In opposite to "qemu -c MyImage" ?

Why do you want the user to do extra typing? There's one config in one directory, so typing the config file name is just redundant.


To me, Jorge's implementation looks just fine.


+           "usage: %s [options] [disk_image|folder]\n"
                "usage: %s [options] [diskimage | bundle]\n"
                                                  ^^^^^^
Go ahead an call the baby by it's name?
