  @brief WvArgs - Sane command-line argument processing for WvStreams

  WvArgs allows you to specify a series of typed or callback-enabled
  command-line arguments.  Once all of these arguments are specified,
  the WvArgs::process(..) function can be called to perform the actual
  argument processing.

  Sample usage:

  @code
  #include "wvargs.h"

  static void callback(void *userdata, WvStringParm value)
  {
      wvout->print("callback value = %s, userdata = %s\n",
      value, (const char *)userdata);
  }

  int main(int argc, char **argv)
  {
      WvString str_opt = "default";
      bool bool_opt = false;
      int num_opt = 0;

      WvArgs args;
      args.add_option('s', "str", "Pass a string option", "string", str_opt);
      args.add_set_bool_option('b', "bool", "Set a boolean option", bool_opt);
      args.add_option('n', "num", "Pass a numeric option", "integer", num_opt);
      args.add_option('c', "callback", "Callback option",
		      WvArgs::ArgCallback(callback), (void *)"demo");

      WvStringList remaining_args;
      args.process(argc, argv, &remaining_args);

      wvout->print("str_opt=%s, bool_opt=%s, num_opt=%s\n",
      str_opt, bool_opt, num_opt);
      WvStringList::Iter i(remaining_args);
      for (i.rewind(); i.next(); )
	  wvout->print("rem: %s\n", *i);

      return 0;
  }
