in reply to how to use --xxx as a option using getopts

Update: I see I've been beaten to the punch. ++ Japhy.

Sorry to sound curmudgeonly, but this is answered in the perldoc for Getopt::Long. It's even mentioned (bundling) in the "Description" section in the first paragraph of the docs. I'll leave `perldoc Getopt::Long' as an exercise to the reader.

In general, posting and then asking for responses to be sent to an email address is bad form. The idea of the community is to learn from one another. Which I'm sure you'll agree doesn't happen if the answer goes off into the ether.
