I would like a way to set the default command line arguments to a program
in Saber via setopt.  I often debug X programs that grab the keyboard
and/or mouse, and if an error occurs I have to do bizarre things to
get of the workstation back.  The specific application I am thinking of
has a "nograb" option but that means I have to remember to use it.  If
there was a setopt, then I could put it in my "make saber" command
list.

If there already is such an option, then consider this a documentation bug
(I couldn't find it).  :-)
