This patchset is for axfer command in alsa-utils to use second argument
for transmission direction. As a result, syntax of its command line is

axfer subcommand direction options

For example:
$ axfer transfer playback [options]
$ axfer list capture [options]

This fashion requires more typing to users, however in my taste this
looks good because it's easier to understand than long/short options.

Additionally, this patchset applies refactoring to list subcommand.

Takashi Sakamoto (5):
axfer: apply refactoring to list subcommand for backward compatibility
to aplay(1)
axfer: apply refactoring in list subcommand for new command system
axfer: use second argument in command line for transmission direction
axfer: use transfer subcommand as a default for compatibility mode to
aplay(1)
axfer: truncate parsed arguments before operating subcommand

Lack of sign-offs?

…y to aplay(1)

This commit splits option parser for backward compatibility to aplay(1)
in list subcommand. Supported operations are listed in local enumeration.

This commit splits option parser for new command system into a function
for readability.

In renewed command system, axfer uses first argument for subcommand. In
popular subcommand such as transfer, transmission direction is required.
At present, some options in aplay(1) are used for this purpose however
it's understandable to use second argument for this purpose.

This commit uses second argument as fixed position to indicate
direction for renewed command system.

… aplay(1)

At present, both of help and transfer subcommands are used when options
are missing in compatibility mode to aplay(1). However, in a view of
users, it should be transfer subcommand.

This commit uses transfer subcommand as a default for the mode.

Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp>
When subcommands are operated, top-most two arguments are already
parsed in renewed command system, thus they're useless. Besides,
they're possible to be parsed by getopt_long(3).

This commit truncates these options before entering subcommand
operation.
