128 If the caller did not specify anything,

132 REQUIRE_ORDER means don't recognize them as options;
133 stop option processing when the first non-option is seen.
134 This is what Unix does.
135 This mode of operation is selected by either setting the environment
136 variable POSIXLY_CORRECT, or using `+' as the first character
137 of the list of option characters.
139 PERMUTE is the default. We permute the contents of ARGV as we scan,
140 so that eventually all the non-options are at the end. This allows options
141 to be given in any order, even with programs that were not written to
144 RETURN_IN_ORDER is an option available to programs that were written
145 to expect options and other ARGV-elements in any order and that care about
146 the ordering of the two. We describe each non-option ARGV-element
147 as if it were the argument of an option with character code 1.
148 Using `-' as the first character of the list of option characters
149 selects this mode of operation.
151 The special argument `--' forces an end of option-scanning regardless
152 of the value of `ordering'. In the case of RETURN_IN_ORDER, only
153 `--' can cause `getopt' to return EOF with `optind' != ARGC. */

243 If an element of ARGV starts with '-', and is not exactly "-" or "--",
244 then it is an option element. The characters of this element
245 (aside from the initial '-') are option characters. If `getopt'
246 is called repeatedly, it returns successively each of the option characters
247 from each of the option elements.
249 If `getopt' finds another option character, it returns that character,
250 updating `optind' and `nextchar' so that the next call to `getopt' can
251 resume the scan with the following option character or ARGV-element.
253 If there are no more option characters, `getopt' returns `EOF'.
254 Then `optind' is the index in ARGV of the first ARGV-element
255 that is not an option. (The ARGV-elements have been permuted
256 so that those that are not options now come last.)
258 OPTSTRING is a string containing the legitimate option characters.
259 If an option character is seen that is not listed in OPTSTRING,
260 return '?' after printing an error message. If you set `opterr' to
261 zero, the error message is suppressed but we still return '?'.
263 If a char in OPTSTRING is followed by a colon, that means it wants an arg,
264 so the following text in the same ARGV-element, or the text of the following
265 ARGV-element, is returned in `optarg'. Two colons mean an option that
266 wants an optional arg; if there is text in the current ARGV-element,
267 it is returned in `optarg', otherwise `optarg' is set to zero.
269 If OPTSTRING starts with `-' or `+', it requests different methods of
270 handling the non-option ARGV-elements.
271 See the comments about RETURN_IN_ORDER and REQUIRE_ORDER, above.
273 Long-named options begin with `--' instead of `-'.
274 Their names may be abbreviated as long as the abbreviation is unique
275 or is an exact match for some defined option. If they have an
276 argument, it follows the option name in the same ARGV-element, separated
277 from the option name by a `=', or else the in next ARGV-element.
278 When `getopt' finds a long-named option, it returns 0 if that option's
279 `flag' field is nonzero, the value of the option's `val' field
280 if the `flag' field is zero.
282 The elements of ARGV aren't really const, because we permute them.
283 But we pretend they're const in the prototype to be compatible
286 LONGOPTS is a vector of `struct option' terminated by an
