135 stop option processing when the first non-option is seen.
136 This is what Unix does.
137 This mode of operation is selected by either setting the environment
138 variable POSIXLY_CORRECT, or using `+' as the first character
139 of the list of option characters.
141 PERMUTE is the default. We permute the contents of ARGV as we scan,

147 to expect options and other ARGV-elements in any order and that care about

149 as if it were the argument of an option with character code 1.
150 Using `-' as the first character of the list of option characters
151 selects this mode of operation.
153 The special argument `--' forces an end of option-scanning regardless

320 If an element of ARGV starts with '-', and is not exactly "-" or "--",
321 then it is an option element. The characters of this element
322 (aside from the initial '-') are option characters. If `getopt'
323 is called repeatedly, it returns successively each of the option characters
324 from each of the option elements.
326 If `getopt' finds another option character, it returns that character,
327 updating `optind' and `nextchar' so that the next call to `getopt' can
328 resume the scan with the following option character or ARGV-element.
330 If there are no more option characters, `getopt' returns `EOF'.
331 Then `optind' is the index in ARGV of the first ARGV-element
332 that is not an option. (The ARGV-elements have been permuted
333 so that those that are not options now come last.)
335 OPTSTRING is a string containing the legitimate option characters.
336 If an option character is seen that is not listed in OPTSTRING,
337 return '?' after printing an error message. If you set `opterr' to
338 zero, the error message is suppressed but we still return '?'.
340 If a char in OPTSTRING is followed by a colon, that means it wants an arg,
341 so the following text in the same ARGV-element, or the text of the following
342 ARGV-element, is returned in `optarg'. Two colons mean an option that
343 wants an optional arg; if there is text in the current ARGV-element,
344 it is returned in `optarg', otherwise `optarg' is set to zero.
346 If OPTSTRING starts with `-' or `+', it requests different methods of
347 handling the non-option ARGV-elements.
348 See the comments about RETURN_IN_ORDER and REQUIRE_ORDER, above.
350 Long-named options begin with `--' instead of `-'.
351 Their names may be abbreviated as long as the abbreviation is unique
352 or is an exact match for some defined option. If they have an
353 argument, it follows the option name in the same ARGV-element, separated
354 from the option name by a `=', or else the in next ARGV-element.
355 When `getopt' finds a long-named option, it returns 0 if that option's
356 `flag' field is nonzero, the value of the option's `val' field
357 if the `flag' field is zero.
359 The elements of ARGV aren't really const, because we permute them.
360 But we pretend they're const in the prototype to be compatible
363 LONGOPTS is a vector of `struct option' terminated by an
364 element containing a name which is zero.
366 LONGIND returns the index in LONGOPT of the long-named option found.
367 It is only valid when a long-named option has been found by the most
