Subject: libc : getopt.h/unistd.h : getopt : bug in optstring?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello,
I tried to use '-' as first character in optstring.

  while( (option = getopt(argc, argv , "-ov:ht")) != -1)

This should handle the the non-option argv-elements as if it were
arguments with character code 1.
It works fine, but not in Cygwin. The Cygwin version of getopt ignores
this flag :-/

Best regards,
Thomas Hieck
