[Arg-parser-bug] Arg_parser 1.15 released

[Antonio Diaz Diaz]

I am pleased to announce the release of Arg_parser 1.15.

Arg_parser is an argument parser that follows POSIX and GNU conventions for 
command line arguments. There exist C++ and C versions of Arg_parser. The 
C++ version is implemented as a C++ class, while the C version is 
implemented as a single struct plus associated functions. Both are simpler, 
easier to use, and safer than 'getopt_long'.

The C++ version of Arg_parser can also parse options from configuration files.

Arg_parser was developed as the argument parser for GNU moe, because moe's 
argument parsing is rather complex. Then I used it in my other projects, 
including GNU ddrescue, GNU ed, lzip, GNU ocrad, tarlz, and zutils, with 
excellent results.

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending 
'.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't 
have the required public key, then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 8FE99503132D7742

Key fingerprint = 1D41 C14B 272A 2219 A739  FA4F 8FE9 9503 132D 7742


Changes in version 1.15:

  * '!empty()' is now used instead of 'size()' to pacify clang.

  * The info manual is now installed in the section 'Libraries'.
