> I'm ready to apply patch 473512 : getopt with GNU style scanning, > which adds getopt.gnu_getopt. I'm +1 on that. I've written a wrapper by myself a few times. Having it in the library will help. Even with Optik, this should be a small patch, and I don't think getopt will be deprecated any time soon. -- Gustavo Niemeyer [ 2AAC 7928 0FBF 0299 5EB5 60E2 2253 B29A 6664 3A0C ]
