This is true for getopt, but not getopts.
Getopts puts the parameter in the hash table (I am working on 5.005_03
built for aix )
perldoc -m Getopt::Std
# Usage:
# getopts('a:bc'); # -a takes arg. -b & -c not. Sets opt_* as a
# # side effect.
So in your case:
getopts("n:hfc",\%option);
So n will expect an argument while h, f, and c will not (thus the 1 in the
hash).
Hope this helps
