  comment:         If specifying file names starting with "-" (example "-folder.gif") to
                   photo commands read and write gives error:  unrecognized option
                   "-folder.gif": must be -format, -from, -shrink, or -to  while
                   executing  "$img2 read "-folder.gif""

                   Same problem when having image data for command "put" starting with
                   "-" (i.e. integer 45):  unrecognized option "--..." must be -format,
                   or -to  while executing  "$img2 put [binary format "cu*" $rowList]

                   Attached is a patch which works for me. It may break existing code,
                   which does not conform to the documentation. Documentation says:  read
                   fileName options  while read options filename does work with current
                   implementation.  Bug seems to be present in 8.5, too.
