Package: libgetopt-argvfile-perl (1.11-3)

Perl module for reading script options and parameters from files

This module simply interpolates option file hints in @ARGV by the contents of the pointed files. This enables option reading from files instead of or additional to the usual reading from the command line.

Alternatively, you can process any array instead of @ARGV which is used by default and mentioned mostly in this manual.

The interpolated @ARGV could be subsequently processed by the usual option handling, e.g. by a Getopt::xxx module. Getopt::ArgvFile does not perform any option handling itself, it only prepares the array @ARGV.
