/* Convert an option, described as a list of the option parts in to a
safe, human readable version.
/* Convert an option, described as a list of the option parts to a
human-readable version.
Example:
(showOption ["foo" "bar" "baz"]) == "foo.bar.baz"
(showOption ["foo" "bar.baz" "tux"]) == "foo.bar.baz.tux"
(showOption ["foo" "bar.baz" "tux"]) == "foo.\"bar.baz\".tux"
(showOption ["windowManager" "2bwm" "enable"]) == "windowManager.\"2bwm\".enable"
Placeholders will not be quoted as they are not actual values:
(showOption ["foo" "*" "bar"]) == "foo.*.bar"
(showOption ["foo" "<name>" "bar"]) == "foo.<name>.bar"
Unlike attributes, options can also start with numbers:
(showOption ["windowManager" "2bwm" "enable"]) == "windowManager.2bwm.enable"
