[lmi] [PATCH] Accept command line arguments in lmi_wx

Subject: [lmi] [PATCH] Accept command line arguments in lmi_wx
Date: Sun, 15 Feb 2015 19:46:11 +0100

 Hello,

 While testing the performance of different operations with a big census, I
got annoyed by the fact that I had to open the one and same census file
each time over and over again from the GUI (even if it's as simple as
pressing Alt+F,1 -- arguably, I get annoyed too easily) and so wrote the
attached patch to allow passing the name of the file(s) to open directly on
the command line.

 It's not a problem for me to keep this patch private, of course, but I
think it's quite reasonable to expect any document-oriented application to
accept files to open on the command line and I was quite surprised a few
times already by the fact that lmi didn't support this, so I believe it
would be a good idea to apply it, especially considering how simple it is
and that the command line arguments are not used for anything else
currently.

 Please let me know if you agree and whether you'd like me to extend the
patch by also updating the usage message to mention the possibility to
specify the command line arguments.

 Thanks,
VZ
