I saw the patch.

Is there no need to rewrite the Description in the Doc to state we should specify either -d or -f option?
(and also it might be better to write if -l option is given, neither -d nor -f option isn't necessarily needed.)


I also have the simple question in the code.

I thought the below if-else condition

+	if (filename && strcmp(filename, "-") == 0)
+		fn = fileno(stdout);
+	else if (filename)
 		fn = -1;
    else if (AH->FH)

can also be written by the form below.

    if (filename)
    {
        if(strcmp(filename, "-") == 0)
            fn = fileno(stdout);
        else
            fn = -1;
    }
    else if (AH->FH)

I think the former one looks like pretty, but which one is preffered?
