35  An option has the form ``-<name>''. The special option ``--''
36  denotes the end of the option list. An option can be followed by a
37  separate argument (on a per option basis).
38 
39  On entry OPTIND contains the index of the next element of ARGV that
40  needs parsing. OPTIND is updated to indicate the index of the next
41  argument before mi_getopt() returns.
42 
43  If ARGV[OPTIND] is an option, that options INDEX is returned.
44  OPTARG is set to the options argument or NULL. OPTIND is updated.
45 
46  If ARGV[OPTIND] is not an option, -1 is returned and OPTIND updated
47  to specify the non-option argument. OPTARG is set to NULL.
48 
49  If an unknown option is encountered, mi_getopt() calls
50  ``error("%s: Unknown option %c", prefix, option)'' while
51  mi_getopt_allow_unknown returns -1. */
