Notes

• options from config override command line options
• optimist introduces strange behaviour in some cases, e.g. it's impossible to pass empty indent option in the following form: -i '', but these solutions work just fine: -i0, --indent '', --indent='', --indent=0
• The behaviour of boolean -a option is quite strange sometimes, check test/autosemicolon.js for details
• file option is used if both file and stdin options are passed
• glob patterns should be quoted to avoid shell pattern matching
• output from multiple files is written into a single destination (file or STDOUT) using /*** FILENAME ***/ as separator
