If you use NSUserDefaults, you can handle key-value options (-
threshold 17) pretty easily, but this has limitations. I don't see
how it can be graceful for
* Two-hyphen options (chatty --verbose).
* Non-value options (ls -a).
* Single-item key-value options (chatty --verbose=3 -or- chatty -v3).
* Concatenated options (ls -al)

Maybe I'm missing something, but why not just use getopt_long()?
That does the parsing for you, and matches what other programs on
the system do.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
