/* longarg -- parse long integer argument
*
* Usage: i = longarg (ptr,brk,prompt,min,max,default)
* long i,min,max,default;
* char **ptr,*brk,*prompt;
*
* Will attempt to parse an argument from the string pointed to
* by "ptr", incrementing ptr to point to the next arg. If
* an arg is found, it is converted into an long. If there is
* no arg or the value of the arg is not within the range
* [min..max], then "getlong" is called to ask the user for an
* long value.
* "brk" is the list of characters which terminate an argument;
* if brk is 0, then " " is used.
*
* HISTORY
* $Log: longarg.c,v $
* Revision 1.2 90/12/11 17:56:36 mja
* Add copyright/disclaimer for distribution.
*
* 28-Apr-85 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
* Modified for 4.2 BSD. Now puts output on stderr.
