Return the option character from OPTS just read. Return -1 when there are no more options. For unrecognized options, or options missing arguments, 'optopt' is set to the option letter, and '?' is returned. The OPTS string is a list of characters which are recognized option letters, optionally followed by colons, specifying that that letter takes an argument, to be placed in 'optarg'. If a letter in OPTS is followed by two colons, its argument is optional. This behavior is specific to the GNU 'getopt'. The argument '--' causes premature termination of argument scanning, explicitly telling 'getopt' that there are no more options. If OPTS begins with '-', then non-option arguments are treated as arguments to the option '\1'. This behavior is specific to the GNU 'getopt'. If OPTS begins with '+', or POSIXLY_CORRECT is set in the environment, then do not permute arguments. For standards compliance, the 'argv' argument has the type char *const *, but this is inaccurate; if argument permutation is enabled, the argv array (not the strings it points to) must be writable. */ extern int getopt (int ___argc, char *const *___argv, const char *__shortopts) __THROW __nonnull ((2, 3)); __END_DECLS #endif /* getopt_core.h */
