require('node-getopt') returns class Getopt

constructor(Array options)
    options is a set of option. each option contains 4 fields.
    [short_name, long_name_with_definition, comment, default]
    Definition:
        * '=ARG':   has argument
        * '[=ARG]': has argument but optional
        * '+':      multiple option supported

        ARG can be replaced by any word.

Getopt parse(Array argv)
    parse argv

    Returns: {argv: '...', options: {...}, ...}

Getopt parseSystem()
    alias of parse(process.argv.slice(2))


Getopt setHelp(String helpTemplate)
    Set help template. the placeholders will be replaced by getopt.

    Placeholders:
        * [[OPTIONS]] - The options list

    Returns: String

String getHelp()
    Get the help generated.

Getopt showHelp()
    console.info(getopt.getHelp());

Getopt bindHelp([String HELP])
    set help template to HELP if HELP is not empty.
    bind 'help' option to default action, show help and exit with 0.

Getpot on(String optionName, Function<Value> action)
    trigger the action when optionName is found.
    the 'this' in action will be the instance of Getopt.

Getopt error(Function<Error e> callback)
    when parse failed callback will be trigger. default is display error message and exit with 1.

create(Array options)
    equals new Getopt(options)

default help template:

    "Usage: node #{process.argv[1].match(/(?:.*[\/\\])?(.*)$/)[1]}\n\n[[OPTIONS]]\n"

v0.2.* is NOT compatible with v0.1.*
