--- The Usage package also acts as the official documentation for the

- -- but regardless of what it is, a hyphen is always allowed as an
- -- (alternative) switch character.

- -- Note: In GNAT, the case of switches is not significant if
- -- Switches_Case_Sensitive is False. If this is the case, switch
- -- characters, or letters appearing in the parameter to a switch, may be
- -- either upper case or lower case.

- -- Returns True iff Switch_Chars is at least two characters long,
- -- and the first character indicates it is a switch.
-
- function Is_Front_End_Switch (Switch_Chars : String) return Boolean;
- -- Returns True iff Switch_Chars represents a front-end switch,
- -- ie. it starts with -I or -gnat.

- procedure Scan_Make_Switches (Switch_Chars : String);
- -- Procedures to scan out switches stored in the given string. The first
- -- character is known to be a valid switch character, and there are no
- -- blanks or other switch terminator characters in the string, so the
- -- entire string should consist of valid switch characters, except that
- -- an optional terminating NUL character is allowed. A bad switch causes
- -- a fatal error exit and control does not return. The call also sets
- -- Usage_Requested to True if a ? switch is encountered.
