follow-up to r9905 '-debug' replaced with new '-simulate' that allows switching off write access
Trigon, this is great, thank you! I have just tried it and works fine and helps in testing a lot.
Several scripts use their own mechanism for that with "-dry" or "-test" or something; we should revise these if they are still neccessary or may be removed. (As far as I understand -simulate works with API query. What happens if somebody uses the bot without API?)
