/**
 * @file
 * @brief
 * This example is an adaptation of the example that can be found in the
 * gengetopt documentation:
 * https://www.gnu.org/software/gengetopt/gengetopt.html. It does not reach
 * feature parity because argagg does not implement dependent options, option
 * sections, word wrapping, and a few other features.
