Bug ID: 82535
Summary: gcc --help lists single dash long option names instead
of preferred double dash long option names
Product: gcc
Version: 8.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: driver
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: wilson at gcc dot gnu.org
Blocks: 82534
Target Milestone: ---
The gcc --help output has lines like
-print-search-dirs Display the directories in the compiler's search
path
-print-libgcc-file-name Display the name of the compiler's companion library
but the preferred option names have two dashes not one. The gcc --help output
should list the preferred double dash option name in all cases where it exists.
