    00074    The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
    00075    of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
    00076    zero.
    00077
    00078    The field `has_arg' is:
    00079    no_argument          (or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
    00080    required_argument    (or 1) if the option requires an argument,
    00081    optional_argument    (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
    00082
    00083    If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
    00084    to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
    00085    left unchanged if the option is not found.
    00086
    00087    To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
    00088    a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
    00089    option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
    00090    value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
    00091    one).  For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
    00092    returns the contents of the `val' field.  */

    00119
    00120    Return the option character from OPTS just read.  Return -1 when
    00121    there are no more options.  For unrecognized options, or options
    00122    missing arguments, `optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is
    00123    returned.
    00124
    00125    The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option
    00126    letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter
    00127    takes an argument, to be placed in `optarg'.
    00128
    00129    If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is
    00130    optional.  This behavior is specific to the GNU `getopt'.
    00131
    00132    The argument `--' causes premature termination of argument
    00133    scanning, explicitly telling `getopt' that there are no more
    00134    options.
    00135
    00136    If OPTS begins with `--', then non-option arguments are treated as
    00137    arguments to the option '\0'.  This behavior is specific to the GNU
    00138    `getopt'.  */
