Subject: [PATCH] Change arguments handling

Allow `-` to name stdin or stdout.
Input file is always the first argument, no need to use option `-i`.
Output file can be named with `-o` or as the second argument
but not both. Option `-o` is useful when there is no input file (input
is redirected, for example: `mysql-to-sql.py -o out.sql < in.sql`).

 Usage::
 
-    mysql-to-sql.py [-i infile] [-o outfile]
+    mysql-to-sql.py [infile] [[-o] outfile]
 
 Options::
 
-    -i, --infile infile    Input file, stdin if absent
-    -o, --outfile outfile  Output file, stdout if absent
+    infile                 Input file, stdin if absent or '-'
+    -o, --outfile outfile  Output file, stdout if absent or '-'
+
+Option `-o` is useful when infile is absent (input is redirected), for
+example::
+
+    mysql-to-sql.py -o outfile.sql < infile.sql
+    cat infile.sql | mysql-to-sql.py -o outfile.sql
+
+But of course it simple can be::
+
+    mysql-to-sql.py - outfile.sql < infile.sql
+    cat infile.sql | mysql-to-sql.py - outfile.sql
