           Summary: q3asm "help" screen missing -m
           Product: Quake 3
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P3
         Component: Misc
        AssignedTo: zakk at icculus.org
        ReportedBy: monk at rq3.com
         QAContact: quake3-bugzilla at icculus.org


The id q3asm generated .map files by default.  ioq3's q3asm requires the use of
the -m argument to generate .map files.  However, this is not mentioned in the
online help for q3asm:

************ ERROR ************
Usage: q3asm [OPTION]... [FILES]...
Assemble LCC bytecode assembly to Q3VM bytecode.

    -o OUTPUT      Write assembled output to file OUTPUT.qvm
    -f LISTFILE    Read options and list of files to assemble from
LISTFILE.q3as
m
    -b BUCKETS     Set symbol hash table to BUCKETS buckets
    -v             Verbose compilation report
    -vq3           Produce a qvm file compatible with Q3 1.32b
    -h --help -?   Show this help


It would probably be trivial to add an extra line to that help screen/message,
but stink at making diffs right now so I figure I'd bring it to someone's
attention so they can spend the 30 seconds to fix it, heh.

I know that ioq3's makefile will generate qvms, but the -m option should still
be documented.
