39 This is used for communication to and from the caller
40 and for communication between successive calls to 'getopt'.
41
42 On entry to 'getopt', zero means this is the first call; initialize.
43
44 When 'getopt' returns -1, this is the index of the first of the
45 non-option elements that the caller should itself scan.
46
47 Otherwise, 'optind' communicates from one call to the next
48 how much of ARGV has been scanned so far. */

62 arguments in ARGV (ARGC of them, minus the program name) for
63 options given in OPTS.
64
65 Return the option character from OPTS just read. Return -1 when
66 there are no more options. For unrecognized options, or options
67 missing arguments, 'optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is
68 returned.
69
70 The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option
71 letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter
72 takes an argument, to be placed in 'optarg'.
73
74 If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is
75 optional. This behavior is specific to the GNU 'getopt'.
76
77 The argument '--' causes premature termination of argument
78 scanning, explicitly telling 'getopt' that there are no more
79 options.
80
81 If OPTS begins with '-', then non-option arguments are treated as
82 arguments to the option '\1'. This behavior is specific to the GNU
83 'getopt'. If OPTS begins with '+', or POSIXLY_CORRECT is set in
84 the environment, then do not permute arguments.
85
86 For standards compliance, the 'argv' argument has the type
87 char *const *, but this is inaccurate; if argument permutation is
88 enabled, the argv array (not the strings it points to) must be
89 writable. */
