Yep, right.
I see, and will remove -P option's explanation from the manual.

Hmm...
As long as I've come this far, I'll do it through.

BTW, can I add the patch to the Commitfest September?
The patch includes improvements and bug fix as you know, So, I can divide the
patch into 2 patches for that.

Which one is better to create, 2 patches or 1 patch?
I summed up fixes of oid2name and vacuumlo so far, the next patch will include
following stuffs:

oid2name
bug fix
- Remove "-P password" option from the document

improvements
- Divide "Options section" into "Options" and "Connection Options" sections in
the help message (--help)
- Add long options only for Connection options (-d, -H, -h, -p and -U)
- Add "-H host" and "-h host" options to the help message and the document
- Add environment variable (PGHOST, PGPORT and PGUSER) to the document
- Add TAP tests for checking command-line options

vacuumlo
improvements
- Add long options only for Connection options (-h, -p and -U)
- Add environment variable (PGHOST, PGPORT and PGUSER) to the document
- Add TAP tests for checking command-line options
