The getopt Portfile 57375 2009-09-10 08:16:41Z ryandesign macports.org $

PortSystem 1.0

Name: getopt
Version: 1.1.4
Revision: 1
Category: sysutils
Maintainers: boeyms openmaintainer
Description: Replacement getopt for shell script use
Long Description: Getopt(1) is a program to help shell scripts parse command-line parameters. It can do anything that the GNU getopt(3) routines can do. It can cope with spaces and shell metacharacters within arguments. It can parse long parameters. It can shuffle parameters, so you can mix options and other parameters on the command-line. It can be easily identified as an enhanced getopt(1) from within shell scripts. It can report parse errors as coming from the shell script. It is fully compatible with other getopt(1) implementations.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/getopt
%  sudo port install getopt  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching getopt
--->  Verifying checksum for getopt
--->  Extracting getopt
--->  Configuring getopt
--->  Building getopt with target all

--->  Staging getopt into destroot

--->  Installing getopt

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using getopt with these commands:

%  man getopt
%  apropos getopt
%  which getopt
%  locate getopt
