CLIG(1)                       Programmer's Manual                      CLIG(1)

NAME
       ::clig::Rest - declare command line arguments not associated with any
       option

SYNOPSIS
       package require clig
       namespace import ::clig::*
       setSpec db

       Rest name usage [-c lo hi]

DESCRIPTION
       The Rest command specifies, what the parser should do with command line
       arguments not associated with any option. Option -c specifies how man
       non-option arguments are allowed on the command line (see
       clig::String(n)). The default values for lo and hi are 0 and oo
       respectively.

       Without a Rest-declaration the parser will generate an error message
       and terminate the program.

       If a Rest is declared, non-option arguments are returned by the parser
       as described below.

PARSER RESULT
   tcl
       Within a Tcl-script, the parser will set the variable with name varname
       in the stack-frame of its caller to the arguments on the command line
       which are not parameters of any option.

   C
       Mainly for historical reasons, the structure returned by the parser
       contains the slots int argc and char **argv. They contain the arguments
       on the command line which are not parameters of any option.

       Example use of Rest:

         Rest infiles {input files} -c 1 oo
