+
+# A small example script for using the getopt(1) program.
+# This script will only work with bash(1).
+# A similar script using the tcsh(1) language can be found
+# as getopt-parse.tcsh.
+
+# Example input and output (from the bash prompt):
+#
+# ./getopt-parse.bash -a par1 'another arg' --c-long 'wow!*\?' -cmore -b " very long "
+# Option a
+# Option c, no argument
+# Option c, argument 'more'
+# Option b, argument ' very long '
+# Remaining arguments:
+# --> 'par1'
+# --> 'another arg'
+# --> 'wow!*\?'
+
+# Note that we use "$@" to let each command-line parameter expand to a
+# separate word. The quotes around "$@" are essential!
+# We need TEMP as the 'eval set --' would nuke the return value of getopt.
