what to use in g++ instead of GetOpt?

[Randall R Schulz]

Hello there, Edward, if that is your real name.

Here's how it is, Ed...

Real Programmers (tm) code to the bare metal. They don't use no stinkin' 
libraries. If you can't decode your command line arguments without some 
"support library" (a concept closely related to "support hose"), the Guild 
of Real Programmers recommends a nice job in investment banking where 
you'll never trouble your little head and the most damage you can do is to 
induce abject poverty and homelessness among the thousands of people who 
don't know about the only law that matters: Caveat Emptor.

I hope you found this little lecture informative, enlightening and 
inspirational.

Good luck with those command line arguments.

Randall Schulz

Disclaimer: The author of this humorous missive writes mostly Java code 
these days, and hence would not know a Real Programmer if one had a heart 
attack right in front of him.
