# occurrences.) Boolean options have '' as option_argument.
# (2) the list of remaining arguments (may be empty).
+# Added by Lars Wirzenius (liw@iki.fi): A third argument is optional.
+# If present, getopt.getopt works similar to the GNU getopt_long
+# function (but optional arguments are not supported). The third
+# argument should be a list of strings that name the long options. If
+# the name ends '=', the argument requires an argument.
+
+# (While making this addition, I rewrote the whole thing.)
