+Clig generates C code to take apart the typical command-line arguments
+given to a C program. Input to clig is a simple description file that
+specifies the name and number of options, their type (Flag, String,
+Float, Int) and permissable range, and which options are mandatory. From
+this, clig will generate self-contained C code to include in your program,
+a usage message, and a manual page skeleton.
+
+Clig does a lot more than getopt!
