#!/bin/bash
# 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-example.tcsh.
# Example input and output (from the bash prompt):
#
# ./getopt-example.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.
