gpt command arguments
Hello,
I am trying to make the gpt command work better and be more inline with
other NetBSD commands so I would like to change it from:
gpt <global-flags> command <command-flags> <device> ...
(which does not make a lot of sense, since why would you operate with the
same command on multiple devices...)
to:
gpt <global-flags> <device> command <command-flags>
do that it is more like, drvctl, dkctl, gpioctl, pcictl etc.
This is going to cause scripts that have the command embedded in them to
break, but always non-destructively.
One way to achieve compatibility is to 'ln gpt gptctl' and have the new
behavior only with gptctl, but I think this is more confusing.
