Thankyou for putting this up.
I think a better solution than reinventing popt is to include it in
the source distribution, and use it if there is no system library.
This is what rsync and samba do. I'll try to copy that across in the
near future.
Also, please if you ever distribute a fork of a free project (even a
small one), make sure to change the version number to indicate it's
different. Getting bug reports for something that claims to be 0.13
but actually is not would be a waste of time for everybody. The GNU
GPL actually requires you to do this.
