Now, the interaction between bundling and ignore-case is documented, but NOWHERE IS IT SPECIFICALLY STATED that setting any particular configuration option (bundling, for example) disables the automatic abbreviation.
Abbreviation is not disabled with bundling. Abbreviation always applies only to 'long' (more than single character) options. Without bundling turned on, the module is looser about when it treats an option as a long option. Without bundling, -t may be a single letter option or an abbreviated long option.

With bundling turned on options beginning with a single '-' are treated as single character options exclusively. If you want to get the auto-abbreviation behavior of long names under bundling you must start the option with two '-'s. This is explicitly stated in the documentation.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
