If you want to leave unmatched options in @ARGV, use

Getopt::Long::Configure( "pass_through" );

or use the "--" construction.

Re^2: GetOptions non-option callback

    well, I'd prefer to catch bad options but maybe I should leave them in @ARGV and parse that after GetOptions, since my callback isn't working.

    Edit: pass_though seems to enable the callback functionality (despite the docs) so I'll just use that. Thanks!
