Darn. I wished you'd said something earlier -- I put this in PEP 237 weeks ago. Does Jython generally try to follow Python's command line options? Would it make sense to define a Jython property for the division behavior? Then I could change the syntax to -Ddivision=old, -Ddivision=warn, -Ddivision=new. That's a bit long, but acceptable. Otherwise, the only mnemonic I can think of would be -/old, -/warn, -/new. But that may be confusing for some users who are expecting options to be letters. I guess we could use -q for quotient. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
