  29 /* Describe the long-named options requested by the application.
  30    The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
  31    of 'struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
  32    zero.
  33 
  34    The field 'has_arg' is:
  35    no_argument          (or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
  36    required_argument    (or 1) if the option requires an argument,
  37    optional_argument    (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
  38 
  39    If the field 'flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
  40    to the value given in the field 'val' when the option is found, but
  41    left unchanged if the option is not found.
  42 
  43    To have a long-named option do something other than set an 'int' to
  44    a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from 'optarg', set the
  45    option's 'flag' field to zero and its 'val' field to a nonzero
  46    value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
  47    one).  For long options that have a zero 'flag' field, 'getopt'
  48    returns the contents of the 'val' field.  */
