3# This library is no longer being maintained, and is included for backward
4# compatibility with Perl 4 programs which may require it.
5# It is now just a wrapper around the Getopt::Long module.
6#
7# In particular, this should not be used as an example of modern Perl
8# programming techniques.
9#
10# Suggested alternative: Getopt::Long
