The reason is simple: as the manual mentions, the argument "-q" is valid 
only with the following commands:

- flush
- zero no.
- add ......

As you see, if you wanna use a file as ipfw's argument, you can't use 
"-q". Alternatively, you can use -q in each line (or each ipfw commands) 
in your file (/myfile). So the rules in this file are added "quietly".
