# module getopt -- Standard command line processing.
# Function getopt.getopt() has a different interface but provides the
-# same functionality as the Unix getopt() function.
-
-# It has two arguments: the first should be argv[1:] (it doesn't want
-# the script name), the second the string of option letters as passed
-# to Unix getopt() (i.e., a string of allowable option letters, with
-# options requiring an argument followed by a colon).
+# similar functionality to the Unix getopt() function, with the
+# addition of long-option support. (Long option support added by Lars
+# Wirzenius <liw@iki.fi>.)
+
+# It has two required arguments: the first should be argv[1:] (it
+# doesn't want the script name), the second the string of option
+# letters as passed to Unix getopt() (i.e., a string of allowable
+# option letters, with options requiring an argument followed by a
+# colon).
+
+# The optional third argument, 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.
# It raises the exception getopt.error with a string argument if it
# detects an error.
-# It returns two items:
+# It returns two values:
# (1) a list of pairs (option, option_argument) giving the options in
# the order in which they were specified. (I'd use a dictionary
# but applications may depend on option order or multiple
# 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.)
