this is what should have been done to fix the problem, and which i
didn't find time to do.

so in the end, it worked out exactly as i imagined:
- i added a more verbose output
- the new output hinted at a problem in the arg parsing
- someone got annoyed by the output
- the underlying problem was fixed

so i'm not sure whether there is a problem with the way i did.


so the next "meaningless, and therefore a pointless annoyance" to fix is:
"WARNING: Font family 'Courier' not found, using default (courier)"

let's see who makes the race
