Processes single-character command-line options with option clustering.
Exports two functions, which 
analyze @ARGV, extract information about the options,
and return this information to your program in a set of variables. Processing
of @ARGV stops when an argument without a leading
- is encountered, if that argument is not
associated with a preceding option.  Otherwise, @ARGV is
processed to the end and left empty.
