- This is the popt(3) command line option parsing library. While it is similiar
- to getopt(3), it contains a number of enhancements, including:
- 1) popt is fully reentrant
- 2) popt can parse arbitrary argv[] style arrays while
- getopt(3) makes this quite difficult
- 3) popt allows users to alias command line arguments
- 4) popt provides convience functions for parsing strings
- into argv[] style arrays
- Complete documentation on popt(3) is available in popt.ps (included in this
- tarball), which is excerpted with permission from the book "Linux
- Application Development" by Michael K. Johnson and Erik Troan (available
- from Addison Wesley in May, 1998).
- Comments on popt should be addressed to popt-devel@rpm5.org.
