[Nano-devel] Bug when opening/creating files starting with a "-" symbol.

[Dan Naumov]

I ran into an annoying bug when trying to open a file named "-XidiaInfo-.txt", 
apparently Nano automatically assumes that the "-" in the beginning of the 
filename is a command-line argument, attempts to use it and obviously, fails to 
start. Running "nano -XidiaInfo-.txt" simple tells you you attemped to use an 
invalid option and prints a list of the valid ones.

The same applies to creating new files as well, not just opening existing ones. 
Try running "nano -whatever" or "nano -blah-" or something and you will get the 
same error.

Sincerely,
Dan Naumov
