/* Arg_parser reads the arguments in 'argv' and creates a number of
   option codes, option arguments, and non-option arguments.

   In case of error, 'ap_error' returns a pointer to an error message.

   'options' is an array of 'struct ap_Option' terminated by an element
   containing a code which is zero. A null long_name means a short-only
   option. A code value outside the unsigned char range means a long-only
   option.

   Arg_parser normally makes it appear as if all the options were specified
   before all the non-option arguments for the purposes of parsing, even if
   the user of your program intermixed options and non-option arguments. If
   you want the arguments in the exact order the user typed them, call
   'ap_init' with 'flags' = 'ap_in_order'.

   The argument '--' terminates all options; any following arguments are
   treated as non-option arguments, even if they begin with a hyphen.

   The syntax of options with an optional argument is
   '-<short_option><argument>' (without whitespace), or
   '--<long_option>=<argument>'.

   The syntax of options with an empty argument is '-<short_option> ""',
   '--<long_option> ""', or '--<long_option>=""'.
