<br>
I am specifying an options file on the command line with '-options_file<br>
<file_name>'. I would like the program to write out <file_name> to<br>
stdout. Is there a simple way to do this?<br>
<br>
I thought that I would be able interrogate the options database to<br>
obtain the file name but, whilst the file is definitely being read, the<br>
name '-options_file' does not appear in the database.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This is true.
