84  /* Describe the long-named options requested by the application.
85     The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
86     of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
87     zero.
88  
89     The field `has_arg' is:
90     no_argument		(or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
91     required_argument	(or 1) if the option requires an argument,
92     optional_argument 	(or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
93  
94     If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
95     to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
96     left unchanged if the option is not found.
97  
98     To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
99     a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
100     option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
101     value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
102     one).  For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
103     returns the contents of the `val' field.  */

125     options given in OPTS.
126  
127     Return the option character from OPTS just read.  Return -1 when
128     there are no more options.  For unrecognized options, or options
129     missing arguments, `optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is
130     returned.
131  
132     The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option
133     letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter
134     takes an argument, to be placed in `optarg'.
135  
136     If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is
137     optional.  This behavior is specific to the GNU `getopt'.
138  
139     The argument `--' causes premature termination of argument
140     scanning, explicitly telling `getopt' that there are no more
141     options.
142  
143     If OPTS begins with `--', then non-option arguments are treated as
144     arguments to the option '\0'.  This behavior is specific to the GNU
145     `getopt'.  */
