Currently -[tTuU] all is handled separately in conf_ports() before calling conf_ports_spec(). Earlier changes mean we can now move this handling to conf_ports_spec(). This makes the code slightly simpler, but more importantly it allows some useful combinations we couldn't previously do, such as -t 127.0.0.1/all or -u %eth2/all

It would probably be good to update the man page at some point with this (we can also leave it undocumented for a while though, as it doesn't break any existing functionality).

Ok, next draft has some man page (and usage()) updates. They'll want some review for clarity. And also the fact that I don't really know how roff works. -- David Gibson (he or they) | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you, not the other way | around. http://www.ozlabs.org/~dgibson
