# Status          : Okay

# This package implements a new getopt function. This function adheres
# to the new syntax (long option names, no bundling).
#
# Arguments to the function are:
#
#  - a list of possible options. These should designate valid perl
#    identifiers, optionally followed by an argument specifier ("="
#    for mandatory arguments or ":" for optional arguments) and an
#    argument type specifier: "n" or "i" for integer numbers, "f" for
#    real (fix) numbers or "s" for strings.
#    If an "@" sign is appended, the option is treated as an array.
#    Value(s) are not set, but pushed.
#
#  - if the first option of the list consists of non-alphanumeric
#    characters only, it is interpreted as a generic option starter.
#    Everything starting with one of the characters from the starter
#    will be considered an option.
#    Likewise, a double occurrence (e.g. "--") signals end of
#    the options list.
#    The default value for the starter is "-", "--" or "+".
#
# Upon return, the option variables, prefixed with "opt_", are defined
# and set to the respective option arguments, if any.
# Options that do not take an argument are set to 1. Note that an
# option with an optional argument will be defined, but set to '' if
# no actual argument has been supplied.
# A return status of 0 (false) indicates that the function detected
# one or more errors.
#
# Special care is taken to give a correct treatment to optional arguments.
#
# E.g. if option "one:i" (i.e. takes an optional integer argument),
# then the following situations are handled:
#
#    -one -two		-> $opt_one = '', -two is next option
#    -one -2		-> $opt_one = -2
#
# Also, assume "foo=s" and "bar:s" :
#
#    -bar -xxx		-> $opt_bar = '', '-xxx' is next option
#    -foo -bar		-> $opt_foo = '-bar'
#    -foo --		-> $opt_foo = '--'
#
# HISTORY 
# 2-Jun-1992		Johan Vromans	
#    Do not use //o to allow multiple NGetOpt calls with different delimeters.
#    Prevent typeless option from using previous $array state.
#    Prevent empty option from being eaten as a (negative) number.

# 25-May-1992		Johan Vromans	
#    Add array options. "foo=s@" will return an array @opt_foo that
#    contains all values that were supplied. E.g. "-foo one -foo -two" will
#    return @opt_foo = ("one", "-two");
#    Correct bug in handling options that allow for a argument when followed
#    by another option.

# 4-May-1992		Johan Vromans	
#    Add $ignorecase to match options in either case.
#    Allow '' option.

# 19-Mar-1992		Johan Vromans	
#    Allow require from packages.
#    NGetOpt is now defined in the package that requires it.
#    @ARGV and $opt_... are taken from the package that calls it.
#    Use standard (?) option prefixes: -, -- and +.

# 20-Sep-1990		Johan Vromans	
#    Set options w/o argument to 1.
#    Correct the dreadful semicolon/require bug.
