set of 14 patches enhancing cmdline experience:
https://code.videolan.org/jnqnfe/vlc/-/tree/cmdline

notable highlights:
 - adds unknown long option suggestion matching (i.e. when possible,
alongside an unknown long option error, a suggestion is given of the
available option that most closely matches it, helping users when they
make typos).
 - colour error/warn labels.
 - distinction made between unknown option and missing data value error
conditions.
 - other minor fixes/improvements.

(had to bundle the FLT_MIN fix just separately submitted).
