When using @boptions, the file boptions needs to have 1 argument per line. When an argument receives an argument (confusing wording here), you need to use = or use multiple lines:
-l=python
or
-l
python
The idea is to be able to use a space as a separator instead of =
-l python
This does not solve all the problems however: when multiple arguments are required, with and without = will yield an invalid file:
--skip=foo bar baz
This is because foo bar baz will be seen as a single argument and not three and obviously such file does not exit.
And we cannot do much about it, the following are currently valid and depends on this "single argument per line" premise
