1 The Getopt::Long module implements an extended getopt function
2 called GetOptions().
3 It parses the command line from @ARGV, recognizing and removing
4 specified options and their possible values.
6 This function adheres to the POSIX syntax for command line options,
7 with GNU extensions.
8 In general, this means that options have long names instead of
9 single letters, and are introduced with a double dash "--".
10 Support for bundling of command line options, as was the case
11 with the more traditional single-letter approach, is provided
12 but not enabled by default.
