Switches in FLO (+u or >>, +c1) and making a list of speaker IDs

So I just tried to run a similar analysis using KWAL and the +c switch 
doesn't seem to work in KWAL either (I both typed in my own command and 
copied and pasted the example for extracting speech only from 9.17.2.   
Does +c not work anymore?
