Hi
I noticed that the mandatory options ("required") are not indicated on the
usage help message.
you mean in the usage line?
they are shown, provided you run gengetopt with the option --long-help,
e.g., the sample1:
Usage: sample1 -iINT|--int-opt=INT [-h|--help] [--full-help]
[-V|--version] -sfilename|--str-opt=filename -mINT|--my-opt=INT
[--flag-opt] [-F|--funct-opt] --long-opt=LONG --def-opt=STRING
--enum-opt=STRING -DINT|--dependant=INT [FILES]...
is that what you meant?
Would it be a good idea to indicate which options are required from the
help message, instead of letting users try-and-error?
or do you actually mean that it is not clear which one is required in
the usage string?
hope to hear from you soon
cheers
Lorenzo
