[BRLTTY] Excess argument: -n

Hi,

I guess the '/' should be replaced by '-' which would give:
brltty -b:al -d:serial:com1

  More positive about the error message than before...

  In Windows brltty-3.10-3 when I enter the command (from the bin subfolder):

  brltty /b:al /d:serial:com1

  I get, as far as I can tell from starting Jaws braille after brltty fails to 
  start, a loop that gives the brltty banner and the error message:

  brltty.exe: excess argument: -n

  The -n is lowercase.

  When I use the Linux style arguments (-bal -dserial:com1) it works great for 
  my device.

  Selecting a contraction table from the preferences menu works, though US 
  contracted braille is the second routing button instead of the 5th. I'll try 
  using the configuration file after lunch.

  The manual looks quite good with `more'.
