Given the following: 
use vars qw /%option/;

getopt('m:f:l:s:q:h', \%option);

how do you test for "no command line options specified" if each key in %option equals 1 by default?

Another related question: I'm trying to say "if you use this option, it needs to accompany another option", and I just realized that what I'm doing doesn't work as expected. Here's what I have: 

if ($option{f})
{

    die
      "You must use the -f option along with another option\nRun $0 -h
+ to view all available options\n"
      unless (($option{f}) && ($option{l} || $option{m} || $option{d})
+);
    $ctlFile = "$option{f}";
}
