- -title is actually the same as -t -i -t -l -e, so we'd need long option 
support. We could do this by using long options (eg GNU getopt or popt). Will 
that work on windows though? 

[ A quick google search showed:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/popt.htm so there may be a 
possibility of doing this - do we import popt, or make it an optional 
dependency or make it a required dependency though?]
