Re: multiple entries per option (Getopt)

[Perlbotics]

You could feed your examples to the following program and see what happens... The important part is the "o=s" telling Getopt to look for -o switches with a string argument and the array-ref telling it to accumulate the -o arguments into an array.

use strict;
use warnings;
use Getopt::Long;

my @o_list;

unless ( GetOptions ("o=s" => \@o_list) ) {
  print "GetOptions had problems parsing ARGV!\n";
}

print "List of  -o things: ", join(", ", @o_list), "\n";
print "Unparsed arguments: ", join(", ", @ARGV  ), "\n";
