Subject: -sbcp option cannot be specified in .perltidyrc
The value of the -sbcp option cannot be specified in a .perltidyrc file. This value must start with the # character. When I use the # character, perltidy complains about a missing value: # starts a comment. When I use \043 instead, perltidy complains that the value must start with #. A nice catch-\043 situation. Perhaps there is an easy way out of this. (I want all of my block comments to be treated as static, so I need this.)

There is in fact a very easy way out, as I discovered by reading the source code: quote the #, e.g. -sbcp='#' # works as desired So this is not a missing feature after all. My vote for clarifying this in the documentation.
