After doing some more research I found that there exist getopts, which
is
bash built in, and getopt, which is a command in util-linux. Should I
prefer one? Is getopts supported by other shells (should we care for
other
shells, other than bash-compatible). As for util-linux it's a required
package allready, right?
Oh, I assumed you would use getopts. If they're roughly equivalent, I
think using the bash builtin is the best option, so that, e.g. a
broken util-linux wouldn't stop SymlinkProgram from running.
Ok, I will use the util-linux version as the bash version isn't as
powerful. Ofcourse I'll keep the old implementation as fallback, for when
util-linux is broken.
