%description
*Getopt::Tabular* is a Perl 5 module for table-driven argument parsing,
vaguely inspired by John Ousterhout's Tk_ParseArgv. All you really need to
do to use the package is set up a table describing all your command-line
options, and call &GetOptions with three arguments: a reference to your
option table, a reference to '@ARGV' (or something like it), and an
optional third array reference (say, to '@newARGV'). &GetOptions will
process all arguments in '@ARGV', and copy any leftover arguments (i.e.
those that are not options or arguments to some option) to the '@newARGV'
array. (If the '@newARGV' argument is not supplied, 'GetOptions' will
replace '@ARGV' with the stripped-down argument list.) If there are any
invalid options, 'GetOptions' will print an error message and return 0.
Before I tell you all about why Getopt::Tabular is a wonderful thing, let
me explain some of the terminology that will keep popping up here.
* argument
any single word appearing on the command-line, i.e. one element of the
'@ARGV' array.
* option
an argument that starts with a certain sequence of characters; the default
is "-". (If you like GNU-style options, you can change this to "--".) In
most Getopt::Tabular-based applications, options can come anywhere on the
command line, and their order is unimportant (unless one option overrides a
previous option). Also, Getopt::Tabular will allow any non-ambiguous
abbreviation of options.
* option argument
(or _value_) an argument that immediately follows certain types of options.
For instance, if '-foo' is a scalar-valued integer option, and '-foo 3'
appears on the command line, then '3' will be the argument to '-foo'.
* option type
controls how 'GetOptions' deals with an option and the arguments that
follow it. (Actually, for most option types, the type interacts with the
'num_values' field, which determines whether the option is scalar- or
vector-valued. This will be fully explained in due course.)
