# 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).
# It raises the exception getopt.error with a string argument if it
# detects an error.
# It returns two items:
# (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.)
