Simply change the existing --device option to --devices and with John's normal way of allowing abbreviations, --device will still work as well :-)

Then of course there's some parsing to do. With VCL (which is awesome) in mind, I think support for all these forms will be appreciated:

--device=3

--devices=1,2,5

--devices=3-5

--devices=gpus

--devices=cpus

--devices=all

magnum
