It's a common convention among command-line programs that if the
documentation describes short options, such as `-c` and `-d` then it
should also accept their combination like `-cd`, unless otherwise stated.
Alternatively, if this is not supported, then at least a warning abound
unknown option "cd" should be displayed.
Instead the process silently accepts `-cd`, and produces a colorful chart
(-c) but does not sort by variance (ignores d).
I'm not sure what version of hp2ps I use, because it seems to ignore
`--version` and `-v` and `--help` does not produce version string
anywhere.
However:
