+An example using only Unix style options:
+
+
+>>> import getopt
+>>> args = '-a -b -cfoo -d bar a1 a2'.split()
+>>> args
+['-a', '-b', '-cfoo', '-d', 'bar', 'a1', 'a2']
+>>> optlist, args = getopt.getopt(args, 'abc:d:')
+>>> optlist
+[('-a', ''), ('-b', ''), ('-c', 'foo'), ('-d', 'bar')]
+>>> args
+['a1', 'a2']
+
+Using long option names is equally easy:
+
+
+>>> s = '--condition=foo --testing --output-file abc.def -x a1 a2'
+>>> args = s.split()
+>>> args
+['--condition=foo', '--testing', '--output-file', 'abc.def', '-x', 'a1', 'a2']
+>>> optlist, args = getopt.getopt(args, 'x', [
+... 'condition=', 'output-file=', 'testing'])
+>>> optlist
