59     The LONG_OPTIONS argument to getopt_long or getopt_long_only is a vector
60     of `struct option' terminated by an element containing a name which is
61     zero.
62    
63     The field `has_arg' is:
64     no_argument (or 0) if the option does not take an argument,
65     required_argument (or 1) if the option requires an argument,
66     optional_argument (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument.
67    
68     If the field `flag' is not NULL, it points to a variable that is set
69     to the value given in the field `val' when the option is found, but
70     left unchanged if the option is not found.
71    
72     To have a long-named option do something other than set an `int' to
73     a compiled-in constant, such as set a value from `optarg', set the
74     option's `flag' field to zero and its `val' field to a nonzero
75     value (the equivalent single-letter option character, if there is
76     one). For long options that have a zero `flag' field, `getopt'
77     returns the contents of the `val' field. */
