Maybe time to rethink how this is controlled.  Maybe --option  
nameFunctions should always enable
trackLines?  Is it helpful to break them apart?  If so, allow --option  
trackLines ?
It seems haphazard - maybe that whole list in Compiler.java should be  
organized so
--option can be used with each one?  I could hook on a usage string  
for each as well.
