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

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