Module: getopt() [X/OPEN]
File: getopt.c
Assoc. files: config.h (but see below)
Description: This module implements a command line parser. It
returns option flags (specified by the user) and
associated values (if any) to the calling program.
Notes: This module began life as a Pascal routine for Oregon
Software's Pascal-2 compiler, and was later rewritten
into C.
Acknowl.: Some features of the AT&T public domain getopt()
released to Usenet have been incorporated:
* It is now possible to use syscalls for error
messages. I disagree slightly with this: the
only reason I can think of is to avoid getting
the stdio-package in linkage. getopt() is likely
to be used in programs where code size is a minor
issue. However, I've made it configurable.

This program/module/routine has been developed as a part of `The Source Code
Project', a personal attempt at producing well-written, portable software
primarily intended to be executed in the ANSI C and POSIX / X/OPEN Unix
environments.
The program/module/routine is hereby placed in the public domain, which
means that it may be freely copied, sold for profit or for fun, praised or
buried as your fancy takes you.
Comments on the portability and adaptability of the program/module/routine
will be appreciated, and, if they result in modifications, acknowledged in
future releases.
