Re: htags could use support for multiple --call-tree --callee-tree options

[Shigio YAMAGUCHI]

I noticed that 'foo_prog' in your first suggestion menas a program name.

I agree to it. How about the following?

htags --call-tree=<path of cflow output>[:<program name>]

(The --call-tree option can be used more than one times.)

It would work but is a little odd.  So was my proposed syntax but
maybe not quite so much since the option argument is obviously a
2-tuple rather than having different meanings depending on option
order (assuming I understand correctly what you have in mind).
Perhaps better than either would be to have
--call-tree-programs=foo,bar and
--call-tree=foo_call_tree,bar_call_tree.  The existing behavior could
be preserved when the --call-tree array has exactly one value,
otherwise --call-tree-programs would be required.  This way everything
has an explicit option name and user can use array option arguments or
repeated options as they wish.
