-- Interpret the parameters of a command, separating options and arguments.
-- Input: command, param
--   command: name of command
--   param: parameters of command
-- Returns: opts, args
--   opts is a string of option letters, or false on error
--   args is an array with the non-option arguments in order, or an error message
-- Example: for this command line:
--      /command a b -cd e f -g
-- the function would receive:
--      a b -cd e f -g
-- and it would return:
--	"cdg", {"a", "b", "e", "f"}
-- Negative numbers are taken as arguments. Long options (--option) are
-- currently rejected as reserved.
