+/* Argp example #3 -- a program with options and arguments using argp */
+
+/* This program uses the same features as example 2, and uses options and
+ arguments.
+
+ We now use the first four fields in ARGP, so here's a description of them:
+ OPTIONS -- A pointer to a vector of struct argp_option (see below)
+ PARSER -- A function to parse a single option, called by argp
+ ARGS_DOC -- A string describing how the non-option arguments should look
+ DOC -- A descriptive string about this program; if it contains a
+ vertical tab character (\v), the part after it will be
+ printed *following* the options
+
+ The function PARSER takes the following arguments:
+ KEY -- An integer specifying which option this is (taken
+ from the KEY field in each struct argp_option), or
+ a special key specifying something else; the only
+ special keys we use here are ARGP_KEY_ARG, meaning
+ a non-option argument, and ARGP_KEY_END, meaning
+ that all argumens have been parsed
+ ARG -- For an option KEY, the string value of its
+ argument, or NULL if it has none
+ STATE-- A pointer to a struct argp_state, containing
+ various useful information about the parsing state; used here
+ are the INPUT field, which reflects the INPUT argument to
+ argp_parse, and the ARG_NUM field, which is the number of the
+ current non-option argument being parsed
+ It should return either 0, meaning success, ARGP_ERR_UNKNOWN, meaning the
+ given KEY wasn't recognized, or an errno value indicating some other
+ error.
+
+ Note that in this example, main uses a structure to communicate with the
+ parse_opt function, a pointer to which it passes in the INPUT argument to
+ argp_parse. Of course, it's also possible to use global variables
+ instead, but this is somewhat more flexible.
+
+ The OPTIONS field contains a pointer to a vector of struct argp_option's;
+ that structure has the following fields (if you assign your option
+ structures using array initialization like this example, unspecified
+ fields will be defaulted to 0, and need not be specified):
+ NAME -- The name of this option's long option (may be zero)
+ KEY -- The KEY to pass to the PARSER function when parsing this option,
+ *and* the name of this option's short option, if it is a
+ printable ascii character
+ ARG -- The name of this option's argument, if any
+ FLAGS -- Flags describing this option; some of them are:
+ OPTION_ARG_OPTIONAL -- The argument to this option is optional
+ OPTION_ALIAS -- This option is an alias for the
+ previous option
+ OPTION_HIDDEN -- Don't show this option in --help output
+ DOC -- A documentation string for this option, shown in --help output
+
+ An options vector should be terminated by an option with all fields zero. */
