Description William Sjöblom cendio 2024-09-11 13:51:53 CEST
In the tl-config man page, we have the following entry under OPTIONS:
> -a, --all-entries
>     Print all parameters and folders in given folder.
In reality, tl-config does not treat -a as a switch, but rather an option with a the hiveconf folder as its parameter.

To examplify, according to the man page grammar, both of these two should be correct:
> tl-config -aR /
> tl-config -Ra /  
In practice though, only the latter is valid.

Being a bit nitpicky, with the hiveconf folder taken as an non-positional parameter, the positional hiveconf folder in the SYNOPSIS is not mandatory (even though it is marked as such). Both of the tl-config examples above omit this positional argument.
