Colums of table: Option tag- all possible alternatives separated by colon Option type- what type will it be passed Option required - If option is required to run the it should be true, else false Option default - Default value for option Secondary Tag - List of possible secondary tags.

options opt; int main (int argc,const char *argv[]){ opt.set_paramenters(commandline,opt_size,usage); //sets up the options you've defined in commandline variable opt.parse_commandline(argc,argv); //Parses the commandline and assigns the variables; To get the string value from model string filename=sopt("-model"); To see if scale was set if (optset("-scale")) double scale=sopt("-scale"); //Return value of scale option return 1; };
