The information given on the wiki is merely straight dumps of the
ouput given by the issuing of the following two commands,

        pdf2swf

        pdf2swf -s help

Both restricted to the stable versions 0.9.1 and 0.9.2

But the wiki is a *wiki*.  Anyone can update it if they so choose.
Feel free to join in! ;o)

The commands merely need to be added to the help output.  As far as I
am aware this is only done when the options have been confirmed, and
a new stable version is released.

Not as far as I am aware.

That said, when not compile a list, and then they can be added to a
development version help section on the wiki?
