Hi,
I have been playing around with the command line arguments and have a couple of questions:
1. Does -p or --print work?
2. What is the use of -z or --without-gui? What is the purpose of -g or --with-gui? Inkscape seems to do the correct thing without needing these.
Thanks,
Tav
Ahh, I just realized that the options for --print must be quoted. This doesn't follow standard Unix/Linux customs. One should be able to just type:
inkscape --print my_svg_file.svg
with the output going to the terminal or to be redirected/piped at will.

You may be right. This is handled in main.cpp - why don't you see if you can adjust it to behave the way you think it should, and submit a patch?

That's not one I typically use so I'm not sure.

Those are mostly vestigal now I think.
