Just a note:
One suggestion (3rd sentence) from current issue has been actually added in different commit -
c1fe95f#diff-9e0aa608cc1becada2dee6fd8950ee85

Honestly, I don't consider this issue as fully considered and implemented.
Here is list of things were skipped:

Call please somehow "none default" mode, for example as "batch" mode.
It will be easier to understand it and reference to it in description.

Please describe cleanly in man DESCRIPTION that there is two modes ("default" and "batch") with corresponding noticeable headers.
Mention please that they accept/ignore different options.
Add there some line breaks to better readability.

Clarify in description of every option which being accepted/ignored in "default" and "batch" modes.

For example -B option is ignored for "batch" mode, discussed here:
https://lists.oetiker.ch/pipermail/smokeping-users/2005-November/001723.html

Currently (v3.10) man page use "looping or counting modes" phrase three times.
I think my suggestion about "batch mode" can be replaced by this already used phrase.
But everything quoted above - is still actual.

What I found today - in the 609f4f1 commit (when you closed this issue) you have added next to -t option:

Note that this option has no effect looping or counting modes (-l, -c, or -C).

I originally requested to document this detail in different form (see description on top of page), and it would not provide so wrong sense !

The new sentence is not true !
See:

# time fping -C3 -p1 -t300 yahoo.jp
yahoo.jp : [0], 84 bytes, 317 ms (317 avg, 66% loss)
yahoo.jp : [1], 84 bytes, 316 ms (317 avg, 33% loss)
yahoo.jp : [2], 84 bytes, 316 ms (316 avg, 0% loss)

yahoo.jp : 317.26 316.80 316.60

real    0m0.371s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

# time fping -C3 -p1 -t200 yahoo.jp

yahoo.jp : - - -

real    0m0.279s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

so -t option actually has effect when used with -c or -C options - but !!! only after last icmp request sent.
It's very connected with different issue #32

How to reopen current issue ?
Or should I open new one ?
