for-each main procedure options

These attributes affect the main procedure and how it processes each argument or input line.

‘interleaved’

If this attribute is specified, then options and operands may be interleaved. Arguments or input lines beginning with a hyphen will cause it to be passed through to an option processing function and will take effect for the remainder of the operands (or input lines) processed.

‘main-init’

This is code that gets inserted after the options have been processed, but before the handler procs get invoked.

‘main-fini’

This is code that gets inserted after all the entries have been processed, just before returning from main().

‘comment-char’

When reading operands from standard input, if you wish comment lines to start with a character other than a hash (#) character, then specify one character with this attribute. If string value is empty, then only blank lines will be considered comments.
