76 * ----------------------------------------------
78 * OPT_HELP_OPTION declares --help and prints a line about that
79 * OPT_HELP prints a line into help
80 * OPT_BOOL declares boolean option with an auto-negation (--sth and --no-sth). It's also possible to write --sth=y/yes/true/1/n/no/false/0.
81 * OPT_STRING, OPT_UNS, OPT_INT declare simple string/uns/int option
82 * OPT_SWITCH declares one choice of a switch statement; these have common target and different `value`s; last wins unless OPT_SINGLE is set;
83 * parser fails if it matches an OPT_SWITCH with OPT_SINGLE set and also target set.
84 * Target must be of signed integer type; it is set to -1 if no switch appears at the command-line.
85 * OPT_CALL calls the given function with an argument, giving also the opt_item structure and some custom data.
86 * OPT_HOOK is called at the specified place: before option parsing, before value parsing and after value parsing as specified in @flags;
87 * OPT_HOOK_BEFORE_ARG gets @opt and @value set to NULL;
88 * OPT_HOOK_BEFORE_VALUE gets both @opt and @value set.
89 * OPT_HOOK_AFTER_VALUE gets both @opt and @value set.
90 * OPT_USER declares a custom type of value defined by the given @cf_user_type in @ttype
91 * OPT_INC declares an incremental value like -v/--verbose
92 * OPT_SECTION declares a subsection
