Don't forget that prefix `-' and `--' are valid C operators. You can't
tell the difference between the above and a valid C expressions. I
think that rules `-...' out.

I also think it should be part of the ``set'' family. I think it is
entirely reasonable for a user to type:
``show logfile''
set/show can be used in ways that avoid the need for parameters.
