[fpc-devel] fp2html strange option

I have a question on the -O option in fp2html. It seems to me that this 
option can be in some cases misleading to say the least. The -O option is 
defined as "output file mask", which imho suggests that the file extension 
is overriden from the default .html. In practice it overrides the first part 
of the filename. But what would be the use if you pass multiple input files 
from command? It would only generate the first file and then deny 
overwriting it with the rest (as if that would make sense).
Is someone using this option in any way? I would suggest to change it into 
the fileextension overriding. Does anyone object?
