# module getopt -- Standard command line processing.

# Function getopt.getopt() has a different interface but provides the
# 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 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).
