### 7.5.4 Option Attributes

For each option you wish to specify, you must have a block macro named `flag` defined. There are two required attributes: `name` and `descrip`. If any options do not have a `value` (traditional flag character) attribute, then the `long-opts` program attribute must also be defined. As a special exception, if no options have a `value` and `long-opts` is not defined and `argument` is not defined, then all arguments to the program are named options. In this case, the `-` and `--` command line option markers are optional.
