You mean like not using getopt and rolling your own? Shrug.
while ((i = getopt(argc, argv, "xxxxx:xxxx")) != -1)
switch (i) {
case ....
}
argc -= optind;
argv += optind;
So I never got getopt(). One of my rules is that I don't use a library
in cases where the number of lines of gunk that that
it takes to use a
library function is >= the number of lines to just write it myself.
I don't know, what lines in the above are extra beyond what you write? The
last two if being generous I suppose.
