Hello. I've been using 2.5 for a little while, and something I find myself doing over and over is checking for mutually-exclusive options. An easy example would be the tar(1) program checking its c/r/t/u/x options: one and only one must be given. Would it be feasible to extend gengetopt to do this checking? If options were listed as part of an "option set" then only one of them could/must appear; multiple options from the set would be an error. By default the option "could" appear, the existing 'required' tag would be used for "must appear" options.
HiI don't remember whether I had already informed you about that: gengetopt is now able to do what you required.
