It's not possible with Getopt::Long. You can only use long options with that, and you can only use short options with Getopt::Std. What you want to do requires Getopt::Mixed.

Actually, I believe it is possible with Getopt::Long. Take a look at the bundling option.

Update: Oh, and of course it helps to use the 'name|n' for defining the short form, since it's not done automatically. :)
