  At least use -Wall. Using gcc under unix, the code does not even want to
  compile. Simple reason is an obvious error:

>> if ( (strcmp(argv[arr],"-help)==0) || (strcmp(argv[arr],"-h")==0) )
                          ^^^^^^
  should be, of course,

  if ( (strcmp(argv[arr],"-help")==0) || (strcmp(argv[arr],"-h")==0) )
                         ^^^^^^^

  There is another similar occasion of this. I dont know why djgpp compiles,
  as it should not. With these changes it compiles fine and runs...
