62/* Describe the long-named options requested by the application.
63 The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
64 of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
65 zero.
66
67 The field `has_arg' is:
68 no_argument (or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
69 required_argument (or 1) if the option requires an argument,
70 optional_argument (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
71
72 If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
73 to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
74 left unchanged if the option is not found.
75
76 To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
77 a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
78 option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
79 value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
80 one). For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
81 returns the contents of the `val' field. */

109 Return the option character from OPTS just read. Return -1 when
110 there are no more options. For unrecognized options, or options
111 missing arguments, `optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is
112 returned.
113
114 The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option
115 letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter
116 takes an argument, to be placed in `optarg'.
117
118 If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is
119 optional. This behavior is specific to the GNU `getopt'.
120
121 The argument `--' causes premature termination of argument
122 scanning, explicitly telling `getopt' that there are no more
123 options.
124
125 If OPTS begins with `--', then non-option arguments are treated as
126 arguments to the option '\0'. This behavior is specific to the GNU
127 `getopt'. */
