Yea I hit = instead of - in "--subject-prefix"...

Yea that works well too, and reduces the code size. Though I suppose it
makes the interface slightly less intuitive, as someone might think they
can pass a value larger than u8. At least for the read/write functions,
a negative value has a meaning - "don't change the page."

Up to you, either way. I'm happy to change it.

Thanks,
Eddie
