Continuing in the tradition of bug reports...

Here's a bug that is possibly a documentation issue, but also should
generate a runtime error... The command
ra -M xml -S ns.ibp.com port 80
correctly prints only flows for port 80 in XML format, however
ra -S ns.ibp.com -M xml port 80
prints ALL flows (TCP, UDP, regardless of port number). The
documentation fails to mention that an arbitrarily long list of mode
operators may follow -M, and that both "port" and "80" are silently
eaten as illegal modes. I'd argue that they should be flagged as
unrecognized, but another way around the bug is to say
ra -S ns.ibp.com -M xml - port 80
