 Creation:	somewhere in 1992 by JHa.
 Revision:  2001-04-18, GPL'd, first public release (JHa)
            2001-04-21, improved help text (JHa)
            2002-06-27, added sodium (JHa)
            2002-10-09, added 15N (JHa)
            2005-02-25, added -v option; license now GPL *v2* (JHa)
            2005-02-27, optimised code in calc loop (JHa)
            2005-02-28, verified and updated atomic masses (JHa)
            2005-06-17, added GPL text when "-h" is used (JHa)
			2006-01-01, extended version for BMC Bioinformatics publication - HR2 (TK)
			2006-03-03, added element ratio checks, extended valencies, only even electrons - HR2 (TK)
			2006-09-09,	1000x-10000x speedup hand optimized hehe. - HR2 (TK)
						-->special version for CHNSOP-F-Cl-Br-Si 
			2009-05-28, David Enot introduced the concept of 'Adducts' (nadd) for MZedDB and corrected 
						some inaccuracies in April 2008. Manfred Beckmann has now corrected the use of 
						'nadd' and 'charge' by calculating 'nadd' from 'charge' using abscharge = abs(charge)
						(did it manually because I couldn't find 'abs') to correct 'measured_mass' and limits, 
						but keeping nadd = 0 for rdb calculation of neutral MW (MB)
			2014-08-29, Marion Landi corrected the mass of atoms.

 This is ANSI C and should compile with any C compiler; use
 something along the lines of "gcc -Wall -O3 -o hr hr.c".
 "g++ -O2 -o myhr HR2.cpp"  on a Mac OS X G5 proc
 Optimize for speed, you may gain factor 3!
 NOW compiled under Visual C++ Express (faster than GCC) in C++ mode for boolean type.

/***************************************************************************
* GETOPT: Command line parser, system V style.
*
*  This routine is widely (and wildly) adapted from code that was
*  made available by Borland International Inc.
*
*  Standard option syntax is:
*
*    option ::= SW [optLetter]* [argLetter space* argument]
*
*  where
*    - SW is '-'
*    - there is no space before any optLetter or argLetter.
*    - opt/arg letters are alphabetic, not punctuation characters.
*    - optLetters, if present, must be matched in optionS.
*    - argLetters, if present, are found in optionS followed by ':'.
*    - argument is any white-space delimited string.  Note that it
*      can include the SW character.
*    - upper and lower case letters are distinct.
*
*  There may be multiple option clusters on a command line, each
*  beginning with a SW, but all must appear before any non-option
*  arguments (arguments not introduced by SW).  Opt/arg letters may
*  be repeated: it is up to the caller to decide if that is an error.
*
*  The character SW appearing alone as the last argument is an error.
*  The lead-in sequence SWSW ("--") causes itself and all the rest
*  of the line to be ignored (allowing non-options which begin
*  with the switch char).
*
*  The string *optionS allows valid opt/arg letters to be recognized.
*  argLetters are followed with ':'.  Getopt () returns the value of
*  the option character found, or EOF if no more options are in the
*  command line. If option is an argLetter then the global optarg is
*  set to point to the argument string (having skipped any white-space).
*
*  The global optind is initially 1 and is always left as the index
*  of the next argument of argv[] which getopt has not taken.  Note
*  that if "--" or "//" are used then optind is stepped to the next
*  argument before getopt() returns EOF.
*
*  If an error occurs, that is an SW char precedes an unknown letter,
*  then getopt() will return a '~' character and normally prints an
*  error message via perror().  If the global variable opterr is set
*  to false (zero) before calling getopt() then the error message is
*  not printed.
*
*  For example, if
*
*    *optionS == "A:F:PuU:wXZ:"
*
*  then 'P', 'u', 'w', and 'X' are option letters and 'A', 'F',
*  'U', 'Z' are followed by arguments. A valid command line may be:
*
*    aCommand  -uPFPi -X -A L someFile
*
*  where:
*    - 'u' and 'P' will be returned as isolated option letters.
*    - 'F' will return with "Pi" as its argument string.
*    - 'X' is an isolated option.
*    - 'A' will return with "L" as its argument.
*    - "someFile" is not an option, and terminates getOpt.  The
*      caller may collect remaining arguments using argv pointers.
