* When this function returns PL_OPT_OK,
* - opt->option will hold the single-character option name that was parsed,
* or zero.
* When opt->option is zero, the token parsed was either a "long" (keyword)
* option or a positional parameter.
* For a positional parameter,
* - opt->longOptIndex will contain -1, and
* - opt->value will point to the positional parameter string.
* For a long option name,
* - opt->longOptIndex will contain the non-negative index of the
* PLLongOpt structure in the caller's array of PLLongOpt structures
8 corresponding to the long option name, and
* For a single-character or long option,
* - opt->longOption will contain the value of the single-character option
* name, or the value of the longOption from the PLLongOpt structure
* for that long option. See notes below.
* - opt->value will point to the argument option string, or will
* be NULL if no argument option string was given.
* When opt->option is non-zero,
* - opt->longOptIndex will be -1
* When this function returns PL_OPT_EOL, or PL_OPT_BAD, the contents of
* opt are undefined.
*
* Notes: It is possible to ignore opt->option, and always look at
* opt->longOption instead. opt->longOption will contain the same value
* as opt->option for single-character option names, and will contain the
* value of longOption from the PLLongOpt structure for long option names.
* This means that it is possible to equivalence long option names to
* single character names by giving the longOption in the PLLongOpt struct
* the same value as the single-character option name.
* For long options that are NOT intended to be equivalent to any single-
* character option, the longOption value should be chosen to not match
* any possible single character name. It might be advisable to choose
* longOption values greater than 0xff for such long options.
