 * 		Version 7 compatible
 * 	Argument scanner, scans argv style argument list.
 * 
 * 	Some stuff is a kludge because sscanf screws up
 * 
 * 	Gary Newman - 10/4/1979 - Ampex Corp. 
 * 
 * 	Modified by Spencer W. Thomas, Univ. of Utah, 5/81 to
 * 	add args introduced by 	a flag, add qscanargs call,
 * 	allow empty flags.
 * 
 * 	If you make improvements we'd like to get them too.
 * 	Jay Lepreau	lepreau@utah-20, decvax!harpo!utah-cs!lepreau
 * 	Spencer Thomas	thomas@utah-20, decvax!harpo!utah-cs!thomas 
 * 
 *	(I know the code is ugly, but it just grew, you see ...)
 * 
 * Modified by:	Spencer W. Thomas
 * 	Date:	Feb 25 1983
 * 1. Fixed scanning of optional args.  Now args introduced by a flag
 *    must follow the flag which introduces them and precede any other
 *    flag argument.  It is still possible for a flag introduced
 *    argument to be mistaken for a "bare" argument which occurs
 *    earlier in the format string.  This implies that flags may not
 *    be conditional upon other flags, and a message will be generated
 *    if this is attempted.
 * 
 * 2. Usage message can be formatted by inserting newlines, tabs and
 *    spaces into the format string.  This is especially useful for
 *    long argument lists.
 * 
 * 3. Added n/N types for "numeric" args.  These args are scanned
 *    using the C language conventions - a number starting 0x is
 *    hexadecimal, a number starting with 0 is octal, otherwise it is
 *    decimal.
 *
 *  Modified at BRL 16-May-88 by Mike Muuss to avoid Alliant STDC desire
 *  to have all "void" functions so declared.
