+ have not yet been updated to work with 2.16 (post-templatisation.).

->&#13; buglist is a shell script which submits a Bugzilla query and

- short options, (such as "-Afoo" or "-Rbar") and long options
- (such as "--assignedto=foo" or "--reporter=bar"). If the first
- character of an option is not "-", it is treated as if it were
- prefixed with "--default=".
