Subject: --java should not work.
at the moment: ack --java 'public class Foo' doesn't generate an error. However, ack --coffee 'public class Foo' does. it appears that you might be allowing "java" as a shortcut for "javascript", which is very misleading. Regards.
Should no longer be a problem since we have a proper --java now.
