    Hi Steve;

    One additional note.

    If there exist suffix rules that define 'types' for files. Then the need of a command
    line option is removed.

    E.g. The command line

    ... this_sim.cfg ...

    would be equivalent to this command line

    ... -verilog_config this_sim.cfg ...

    With a suffix rule.

    Synopsys Vcs (a tool I know of) allows one to specify a mixture of verilog, C code and
    object files on the command line. It distinguishes them by the suffix, not by command line.

    Thus one could have a tool that would accept

    % my_vlg_tool top.v mid.v this.cfg lib.map other.v lib/*.vlib

    without any other 'options'
