# The GetoptLong class allows you to parse command line options similarly to
# the GNU getopt_long() C library call. Note, however, that GetoptLong is a
# pure Ruby implementation.
# GetoptLong allows for POSIX-style options like <tt>--file</tt> as well
# as single letter options like <tt>-f</tt>
# The empty option <tt>--</tt> (two minus symbols) is used to end option
# processing. This can be particularly important if options have optional
# Here is a simple example of usage:
# [ '--help', '-h', GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT ],
# [ '--repeat', '-n', GetoptLong::REQUIRED_ARGUMENT ],
# [ '--name', GetoptLong::OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT ]
# opts.each do |opt, arg|
# greet user by name, if name not supplied default is John
# DIR: The directory in which to issue the greeting.
# puts "Missing dir argument (try --help)"
# for i in (1..repetitions)
# hello -n 6 --name -- /tmp

# \Set up option processing.
# The options to support are passed to new() as an array of arrays.
# Each sub-array contains any number of String option names which carry
# the same meaning, and one of the following flags:
# GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT :: Option does not take an argument.
# GetoptLong::REQUIRED_ARGUMENT :: Option always takes an argument.
# GetoptLong::OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT :: Option may or may not take an argument.
# The first option name is considered to be the preferred (canonical) name.
# Other than that, the elements of each sub-array can be in any order.

# \Set the handling of the ordering of options and arguments.
# A RuntimeError is raised if option processing has already started.
# The supplied value must be a member of GetoptLong::ORDERINGS. It alters
# the processing of options as follows:
# Options are required to occur before non-options.
# Processing of options ends as soon as a word is encountered that has not
# been preceded by an appropriate option flag.
# For example, if -a and -b are options which do not take arguments,
# parsing command line arguments of '-a one -b two' would result in
# 'one', '-b', 'two' being left in ARGV, and only ('-a', '') being
# processed as an option/arg pair.
# This is the default ordering, if the environment variable
# POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. (This is for compatibility with GNU getopt_long.)
# Options can occur anywhere in the command line parsed. This is the
# Every sequence of words which can be interpreted as an option (with or
# without argument) is treated as an option; non-option words are skipped.
# For example, if -a does not require an argument and -b optionally takes
# an argument, parsing '-a one -b two three' would result in ('-a','') and
# ('-b', 'two') being processed as option/arg pairs, and 'one','three'
# If the ordering is set to PERMUTE but the environment variable
# POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, REQUIRE_ORDER is used instead. This is for
# compatibility with GNU getopt_long.
# <b>RETURN_IN_ORDER</b> :
# All words on the command line are processed as options. Words not
# preceded by a short or long option flag are passed as arguments
# with an option of '' (empty string).
# For example, if -a requires an argument but -b does not, a command line
# of '-a one -b two three' would result in option/arg pairs of ('-a', 'one')
# ('-b', ''), ('', 'two'), ('', 'three') being processed.
# The method is failed if option processing has already started.
