Your license choice is a little problematic.
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/FAQ#Can_I_use_a_Creative_Commons_license_for_software.3F

If you really want to use a Create Commons license, the CC0 license would make it easy for people to use your code. The BSD license would be a good choice that seems compatible with your intent.

There is a PHP Notice regarding the split() function.

“Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in …”

My PHP version is PHP 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.2

I have found a typo: “Missing artument to option” should of course be “Missing argument to option”

@Paul A. Houle, Chris:
The license is now mentioned. Can you live with it?

@tom:
Thanks for your comment. I’ve fixed/extended the source.

@all:
sorry for the late answer, I had trouble with the notification mails.

Are hyphens not allowed in GNU-style long options? They are conventional…

For example, see man pages for: diff(1), curl(1), mysql(1)

Is this code public domain?

Hi Alex, I’d be a little more comfortable using (and maybe contributing to) getopts() if it had a license. If you don’t have a strong preference, I’d suggest that you go with a modified BSD license.
