###############################################################################

# Get raw options for any commands that expect them.

# Steps:
#
# 1. set expected short options in `optstring` at beginning of the "Normalize
#    Options" section,
# 2. parse options in while loop in the "Parse Options" section.

# Normalize Options ###########################################################

# Source:
#   https://github.com/e36freak/templates/blob/master/options

# The first loop, even though it uses 'optstring', will NOT check if an
# option that takes a required argument has the argument provided. That must
# be done within the second loop and case statement, yourself. Its purpose
# is solely to determine that -oARG is split into -o ARG, and not -o -A -R -G.

# Set short options -----------------------------------------------------------

# option string, for short options.
#
# Very much like getopts, expected short options should be appended to the
# string here. Any option followed by a ':' takes a required argument.
#
# In this example, `-x` and `-h` are regular short options, while `o` is
# assumed to have an argument and will be split if joined with the string,
# meaning `-oARG` would be split to `-o ARG`.
optstring=h

# Normalize -------------------------------------------------------------------

# iterate over options, breaking -ab into -a -b and --foo=bar into --foo bar
# also turns -- into --endopts to avoid issues with things like '-o-', the '-'
# should not indicate the end of options, but be an invalid option (or the
# argument to the option, such as wget -qO-)
unset options
# while the number of arguments is greater than 0
while (($#))
