/* Argp example #2 -- a pretty minimal program using argp */

/* This program doesn't use any options or arguments, but uses
   argp to be compliant with the GNU standard command line
   format.

   In addition to making sure no arguments are given, and
   implementing a --help option, this example will have a
   --version option, and will put the given documentation string
   and bug address in the --help output, as per GNU standards.

   The variable ARGP contains the argument parser specification;
   adding fields to this structure is the way most parameters are
   passed to argp_parse (the first three fields are usually used,
   but not in this small program).  There are also two global
   variables that argp knows about defined here,
   ARGP_PROGRAM_VERSION and ARGP_PROGRAM_BUG_ADDRESS (they are
   global variables because they will almost always be constant
   for a given program, even if it uses different argument
   parsers for various tasks).  */
