Such a simple option set probably doesn't actually *need* a parser. I
don't think any lines would be freed up in dmenu. You'd just add code.
It's got a for loop and a list of strcmps, plus usage(), which could
be done with a goto but I wasn't sure if that's "suckless". It's
really the simplest implementation out there.

I think "files..." means 1 or more file, and "[files]..." means 0 or more.

I think it should be in the order the programmer gives them. Some
options may be more important, for example.
