I want this for node: http://linux.die.net/man/3/getopt_long
In particular, I want to process options in order stopping at the first unrecognized/non-option token. Ideally, with "normal" options parsing rules (single character options can be combined, space can be absent between an option and it's value, --no-flag is inverse of --flag, etc.). I've wasted too much time puzzling over the various options parsers out there (which are mostly remarkably silent on the question of what option syntax they actually support :-(). Is their someone here who shares my pain, and can point me to the right module? Don't suggest optimist, it parses everything, and can't tell if an option takes an arg or not. Commander wants to parse everything as well. I am looking for somthing that can parse node cmd.js -abf FILE --this THIS --flag --no-flag NOTANOPTION ... --this-is-not-a-flag-to-cmd.js ... and other random stuff .... Up to NOTANOPTION are all known options to cmd.js, NOTANOPTION and everything after it should NOT be examined by the options parser.
