Re: terminal info

[Dougie Nisbet <dougie highmoor co uk>]

I almost always run with --debug so that I can see what's going on. This 
is very useful as I have 'write metadata to file' ticked, and if I have 
changed a tag that affects hundreds of photos it can take a long time 
for the physical file changes to be completed. I like to make sure 
they're all done before I exit f-spot (I know they resume next time I 
run f-spot if incomplete)
