/*
Module: getopts

Simple getopt alternative. Construct a vector of options, either by using
reqopt, optopt, and optflag or by building them from components yourself, and
pass them to getopts, along with a vector of actual arguments (not including
argv[0]). You'll either get a failure code back, or a match.  You'll have to
verify whether the amount of 'free' arguments in the match is what you
expect. Use opt_* accessors to get argument values out of the match object.

Single-character options are expected to appear on the command line with a
single preceeding dash; multiple-character options are expected to be
proceeded by two dashes. Options that expect an argument accept their argument
following either a space or an equals sign.

Example:

The following example shows simple command line parsing for an application
that requires an input file to be specified, accepts an optional output file
name following -o, and accepts both -h and --help as optional flags.

> fn main(args: [str]) {
>   let opts = [
>     optopt("o"),
>     optflag("h"),
>     optflag("help")
>   ];
>   let match = alt getopts(vec::shift(args), opts) {
>     success(m) { m }
>     failure(f) { fail fail_str(f) }
>   };
>   if opt_present(match, "h") || opt_present(match, "help") {
>     print_usage();
>     ret;
>   }
>   let output = opt_maybe_str(match, "o");
>   let input = if !vec::is_empty(match.free) {
>     match.free[0]
>   } else {
>     print_usage();
>     ret;
>   }
>   do_work(input, output);
> }
