#include <libxo/xo.h>
argc = xo_parse_args(argc, argv);
if (argc < 0)
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
Following the call to xo_parse_args(), the application can process the remaining arguments in a normal manner.
The xo_set_program() function sets name of the program as reported by functions like xo_failure(), xo_warn(), xo_err(), etc. The program name is initialized by xo_parse_args(), but subsequent calls to xo_set_program() can override this value.
Note that the value is not copied, so the memory passed to xo_set_program() (and xo_parse_args()) must be maintained by the caller.
