-getopt.c - Read command line options
-
-AUTHOR: Gregory Pietsch

-DESCRIPTION:
-
-The getopt() function parses the command line arguments.  Its arguments argc
-and argv are the argument count and array as passed to the main() function
-on program invocation.  The argument optstring is a list of available option
-characters.  If such a character is followed by a colon (`:'), the option
-takes an argument, which is placed in optarg.  If such a character is
-followed by two colons, the option takes an optional argument, which is
-placed in optarg.  If the option does not take an argument, optarg is NULL.
-
-The external variable optind is the index of the next array element of argv
-to be processed; it communicates from one call to the next which element to
-process.
-
-The getopt_long() function works like getopt() except that it also accepts
-long options started by two dashes `--'.  If these take values, it is either
-in the form
-
---arg=value
-
- or
-
---arg value
-
-It takes the additional arguments longopts which is a pointer to the first
-element of an array of type GETOPT_LONG_OPTION_T.  The last element of the
-array has to be filled with NULL for the name field.
-
-The longind pointer points to the index of the current long option relative
-to longopts if it is non-NULL.
-
-The getopt() function returns the option character if the option was found
-successfully, `:' if there was a missing parameter for one of the options,
-`?' for an unknown option character, and EOF for the end of the option list.
-
-The getopt_long() function's return value is described in the header file.
-
-The function getopt_long_only() is identical to getopt_long(), except that a
-plus sign `+' can introduce long options as well as `--'.
-
-The following describes how to deal with options that follow non-option
-argv-elements.
-
-If the caller did not specify anything, the default is REQUIRE_ORDER if the
-environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is defined, PERMUTE otherwise.
-
-REQUIRE_ORDER means don't recognize them as options; stop option processing
-when the first non-option is seen.  This is what Unix does.  This mode of
-operation is selected by either setting the environment variable
-POSIXLY_CORRECT, or using `+' as the first character of the optstring
-parameter.
-
-PERMUTE is the default.  We permute the contents of ARGV as we scan, so that
-eventually all the non-options are at the end.  This allows options to be
-given in any order, even with programs that were not written to expect this.
-
-RETURN_IN_ORDER is an option available to programs that were written to
-expect options and other argv-elements in any order and that care about the
-ordering of the two.  We describe each non-option argv-element as if it were
-the argument of an option with character code 1.  Using `-' as the first
-character of the optstring parameter selects this mode of operation.
-
-The special argument `--' forces an end of option-scanning regardless of the
-value of ordering.  In the case of RETURN_IN_ORDER, only `--' can cause
-getopt() and friends to return EOF with optind != argc.
