getopt

[William Davidsen]

  I would like to thank all the people who posted or mailed comments
about my getopt question. I am incorporating some of those ideas and
will be posting a source and man page for the result. I am using the
character ? for the optional argument character. Since getopt returns ?
to indicate an unknown option, there won't be any existing programs
using it, and the extended getopt will work with existing programs.

  I guess anything with a man page should be posted to sources.misc
rather than alt.sources, so look for it soon.
