[COPY] [COPY] --- ROCK-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] The popt command line option parsing library [T] This is the popt command line option parsing library. While it is similiar [T] to getopt(3), it contains a number of enhancements, including: [T] [T] 1) popt is fully reentrant [T] 2) popt can parse arbitrary argv[] style arrays while [T] getopt(2) makes this quite difficult [T] 3) popt allows users to alias command line arguments [T] 4) popt provides convience functions for parsting strings [T] into argv[] style arrays [T] [T] popt is used by rpm, the Red Hat install program, and many other Red Hat [T] utilities, all of which provide excellent examples of how to use popt.
