How was that the first thing you looked at?  It's the seventh change in the
fifth file of the patch.  Do your eyes have inbuilt magnetisation or
something?

It's not really unrelated either, as you had told me not to colour this
heading yellow (like in "pacman-color").  When I was reverting the code, I
noticed that the trailing colon was missing.  Are you seriously saying that
you want said colon in a patch all by itself?

You're a hard taskmaster, Chief.  I'm not really sure of what you're
wanting.  Here's what you requested from me:

So, I'd like separate patches:


> -Si/-Qi: just those changes
> -S group dialog: just those changes


> -Qo/-Fo can have the same done
> and anywhere else that is currently not consistent.


Due to the line breaks, I took this to mean that you wanted two patches in
total.  The first was to contain all of the changes to -Si, -Qi and -S
(group), while the second should deal with -Qo/-Fo and the rest.

I'm now guessing that you want -Si and -Qi in a patch by themselves, and -S
(group) in a separate one.  Is this correct, or do you want -Si and -Qi to
be in separate patches as well?
