7getopt, getopts - Process single-character switches with switch clustering

9=head1 SYNOPSIS
10
11    use Getopt::Std;
12
13    getopt('oDI');    # -o, -D & -I take arg.  Sets $opt_* as a side effect.
14    getopt('oDI', \%opts);    # -o, -D & -I take arg.  Values in %opts
15    getopts('oif:');  # -o & -i are boolean flags, -f takes an argument
16		      # Sets $opt_* as a side effect.
17    getopts('oif:', \%opts);  # options as above. Values in %opts
18
19=head1 DESCRIPTION
20
21The getopt() function processes single-character switches with switch
22clustering.  Pass one argument which is a string containing all switches
23that take an argument.  For each switch found, sets $opt_x (where x is the
24switch name) to the value of the argument if an argument is expected,
25or 1 otherwise.  Switches which take an argument don't care whether
26there is a space between the switch and the argument.
27
28The getopts() function is similar, but you should pass to it the list of all
29switches to be recognized.  If unspecified switches are found on the
30command-line, the user will be warned that an unknown option was given.
31
32Note that, if your code is running under the recommended C<use strict
33'vars'> pragma, you will need to declare these package variables
34with "our":
35
36    our($opt_x, $opt_y);
37
38For those of you who don't like additional global variables being created, getopt()
39and getopts() will also accept a hash reference as an optional second argument.
40Hash keys will be x (where x is the switch name) with key values the value of
41the argument or 1 if no argument is specified.
42
43To allow programs to process arguments that look like switches, but aren't,
44both functions will stop processing switches when they see the argument
45C<-->.  The C<--> will be removed from @ARGV.
46
47=head1 C<--help> and C<--version>
48
49If C<-> is not a recognized switch letter, getopts() supports arguments
50C<--help> and C<--version>.  If C<main::HELP_MESSAGE()> and/or
51C<main::VERSION_MESSAGE()> are defined, they are called; the arguments are
52the output file handle, the name of option-processing package, its version,
53and the switches string.  If the subroutines are not defined, an attempt is
54made to generate intelligent messages; for best results, define $main::VERSION.
55
56If embedded documentation (in pod format, see L<perlpod>) is detected
57in the script, C<--help> will also show how to access the documentation.
58
59Note that due to excessive paranoia, if $Getopt::Std::STANDARD_HELP_VERSION
60isn't true (the default is false), then the messages are printed on STDERR,
61and the processing continues after the messages are printed.  This being
62the opposite of the standard-conforming behaviour, it is strongly recommended
63to set $Getopt::Std::STANDARD_HELP_VERSION to true.
64
65One can change the output file handle of the messages by setting
66$Getopt::Std::OUTPUT_HELP_VERSION.  One can print the messages of C<--help>
67(without the C<Usage:> line) and C<--version> by calling functions help_mess()
68and version_mess() with the switches string as an argument.
