/** \brief command-line options parsing for main
    \arg desc command argument description (allowed options)
    \arg argv main argv
    \arg argc main argc
    \arg arg returned argument (for options that take an argument).
    \retval 0 non-option arg (e.g. filename).
    \retval -1 unknown option (error). arg is name of unknown option
    \retval -2 no more options (end of options)
    \retval c option char

This function is called repeatedly for each option. Both single
    char options (-x) as well as GNU long options are supported (--long).
    The description is a sequence specs where each spec is if the form:
    [a-zA-Z0-9]({[a-zA-Z0-9]*})+:? . For example: h{help}f{filename}{fname}:

The first char is what is returned when met (single char option char).
    The second is zero ore more long option values (synonum for single char)
    If colon is appended, it means the option takes an argument.
    If argv includes empty long option (--) that means "end of options" :
    all argv data following that is considered non-options .. (0 returned
    for each).
