Description
array
getopt ( string options )
Returns an associative array of option / argument pairs based on the
options format specified in options, or FALSE
on an error.
The options parameter may contain the following
elements: individual characters, and characters followed by a colon to
indicate an option argument is to follow. For example, an option string
x recognizes an option -x, and an
option string x: recognizes an option and argument
-x argument. It does not matter if an argument has
leading white space.
This function will return an array of option / argument pairs. If an
option does not have an argument, the value will be set to FALSE.
Note: This function is not
implemented on Windows platforms.
