Use getopt for flag parsing #112

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
We do some ad-hoc parsing of flags at the moment that clearly isn't going to 
scale well in the future. This issue is to track work on moving that section of 
code to use getopts or some comparable library.

This will also help with generating a proper --help, and man page.

I looked at this a little bit, it appears that using getopt_long is the way to 
go. It's also suggested to use this by the GNU Coding Standards

fuse uses its own option parsing framework (fuse_opt_parse), so, not sure if 
you'll be able to use getopt?

fixed in r227

uses getopt_long now and still allows for FUSE's parser to work as well.
