Yeah, that does look like a better approach, though I'm not really
catching what this bit actually does: `GetMultiOps(\@eArray)'. Not
familiar with the syntax. I think I see the intent though. I'm now
thinking this might be better if used with regular Getopt::Std like:
if ($opt_e) {
$opt_e would be the first and get shifted by Getopt::Std
Then trot out your sub for any others. Resetting ARGV as you go.
}
I think that would allow the existing Getopt::Std to work its magic
and take care of any undesired looping you mentioned. So really
just `while looping' away any extra args at each option.
I haven't implemented this but I think it will work and be cleaner
and less error prone.
Your sub idea is vastly superior to if/elsing till I puke.
Thanks.
