+// How to parse command line arguments - Duncan Gibson 2010-10-23
 //
-//     Shows how to decode additional command line arguments using Fl::args()
-//     on top of the "standard" options used by the toolkit itself.

-//     usual *nix idiom of "option=value", and provides no validation nor
-//     conversion of the paramter string into ints or floats.
