Script file and -l option

[tsdryden]

I tried to use a script file that contains no file names, just the nconvert options line. The files to be processed are listed in a file referred to by the -l option. nconvert doesn't process anything. If I add a file name to the script file, even a dummy one, then nconvert will process the files in the -l file. Should it analyze the list of options and, if it finds the -l option, process that list of files even if there are no files listed in the script itself?
