Module Getopt::Long implements an extended getopt function called
|
|
|
|
|
GetOptions(). This function implements the POSIX standard for command
|
|
|
|
|
line options, with GNU extensions, while still capable of handling the
|
|
|
|
|
traditional one-letter options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In general, this means that command line options can have long names
|
|
|
|
|
instead of single letters, and are introduced with a double dash `--'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally, Getopt::Long can support the traditional bundling of
|
|
|
|
|
single-letter command line options.
