Description: C library for parsing command line parameters
Popt is a C library for pasing command line parameters. It was heavily
influenced by the getopt() and getopt_long() functions, but it allows
more powerfull argument expansion. It can parse arbitrary argv[] style
arrays and automatically set variables based on command line arguments.
It also allows command line arguments to be aliased via configuration
files and includes utility functions for parsing arbitrary strings into
argv[] arrays using shell-like rules.
.
This package contains the popt static library and header file.
