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

    /* Get definitions and prototypes for functions to process the
       arguments in ARGV (ARGC of them, minus the program name) for
       options given in OPTS.
    
       Return the option character from OPTS just read.  Return -1 when
       there are no more options.  For unrecognized options, or options
       missing arguments, `optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is
       returned.
    
       The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option
       letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter
       takes an argument, to be placed in `optarg'.
    
       If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is
       optional.  This behavior is specific to the GNU `getopt'.
    
       The argument `--' causes premature termination of argument
       scanning, explicitly telling `getopt' that there are no more
       options.
    
       If OPTS begins with `--', then non-option arguments are treated as
       arguments to the option '\0'.  This behavior is specific to the GNU
       `getopt'.  */
