  18 /* This program doesn't use any options or arguments, but uses
  19    argp to be compliant with the GNU standard command line
  20    format.
  21
  22    In addition to making sure no arguments are given, and
  23    implementing a --help option, this example will have a
  24    --version option, and will put the given documentation string
  25    and bug address in the --help output, as per GNU standards.
  26
  27    The variable ARGP contains the argument parser specification;
  28    adding fields to this structure is the way most parameters are
  29    passed to argp_parse (the first three fields are usually used,
  30    but not in this small program).  There are also two global
  31    variables that argp knows about defined here,
  32    ARGP_PROGRAM_VERSION and ARGP_PROGRAM_BUG_ADDRESS (they are
  33    global variables because they will almost always be constant
  34    for a given program, even if it uses different argument
  35    parsers for various tasks).  */
