  I see.

  Considering the above and that the patch is rather small I have
  comitted it to CVS with the following changes:

  manpage: * --batch* instead of --batch-*
  * added description of --batch-start
  * used order: --batch --batch-start --batch-count --batch-double
  --batch-increment everywhere
  source: * "/* */" instead of "//"
  * added description of --batch-increment
  * used above mentioned order
  * --batch-double instead of --batch-doublesided in short description

  Thank you for your work!

  Bye,
  Henning
