#54 Additioal error msgs for plpbackup

[Keita KAWABE]

Well it's really a trivial thing, but when plpbackup is
run with
neither -r nor -b option, it seems to quit silently.
How about telling something to the users like this?

driveList.push_back(argv[i]);

+ if (!doBackup && !doRestore) {
+ cerr <<_("Either backup (-b) or restore (-r)
option is needed.")
+ << endl;
+ usage(&cerr);
+ }
if (doBackup && (doRestore || doFormat)) {
cerr << _("Backup mode can not be combined with
format or restore.")
<< endl;
=======================================================

Best regards,

The logic is wrong.
You can run plpbackup --format <DRIVE>
if you want to format a drive only.
I'll use something similar when none of the 3 actions is specified.

Thanks
