- I recently heard that future POSIX standards will document `long options'
- similar to those used in the GNU file utilities.
-
- (1) Is this true?
- (2) Will there be a standard for getting a short help (like `+help')?
- (3) What about tools that do not use getopt (like pg, chmod, tar and so on)?
- (4) Is there a list of proposed long options for the standard tools?
