# Try invoking this script with
# 'scriptname -mn'
# 'scriptname -oq qOption' (qOption can be some arbitrary string.)
# 'scriptname -qXXX -r'
#
# 'scriptname -qr'    - Unexpected result, takes "r" as the argument to option "q"
# 'scriptname -q -r'  - Unexpected result, same as above
#  If an option expects an argument ("flag:"), then it will grab
#  whatever is next on the command line.
