[Ctk-developers] Command Line Modules

[Florian Vichot]

Hey all, 

I do some post-processing, I strip the '*' from the extension list, but keep the leading dot, as that's the way we format supported extensions in the read/writer plugins in medInria. 
Do you have examples in the wild of CLIs that output XML without the asterisk ? All the ones I have here (niftyreg tools, the CTK test binaries) have asterisks in their extension lists.
