+#!/bin/tcsh
+
+# A small example script for using the getopt(1) program.
+# This script will only work with tcsh(1).
+# A similar script using the bash(1) language can be found
+# as getopt-example.bash.
+
+# Example input and output (from the tcsh prompt):
+# ./getopt-example.tcsh -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 had to escape the exclamation mark in the wow-argument. This
+# is _not_ a problem with getopt, but with the tcsh command parsing. If you
+# would give the same line from the bash prompt (ie. call ./parse.tcsh),
+# you could remove the exclamation mark.
+
+# This is a bit tricky. We use a temp variable, to be able to check the
+# return value of getopt (eval nukes it). argv contains the command arguments
+# as a list. The ':q`  copies that list without doing any substitutions:
+# each element of argv becomes a separate argument for getopt. The braces
+# are needed because the result is also a list.
+set temp=(`getopt -s tcsh -o ab:c:: --long a-long,b-long:,c-long:: -- $argv:q`)
+if ($? != 0) then
+  echo "Terminating..." >/dev/stderr
+  exit 1
+endif
+
+# Now we do the eval part. As the result is a list, we need braces. But they
+# must be quoted, because they must be evaluated when the eval is called.
+# The 'q` stops doing any silly substitutions.
+eval set argv=\($temp:q\)
