NAME
       get_options - Parse a string into a list of integers

SYNOPSIS
       char * get_options(const char * str, int nints, int * ints);

ARGUMENTS
       str
	   String to be parsed

       nints
	   size of integer array

       ints
	   integer array

DESCRIPTION
       This function parses a string containing a comma-separated list of integers, a hyphen-separated range of _positive_ integers, or a
       combination of both. The parse halts when the array is full, or when no more numbers can be retrieved from the string.

       Return value is the character in the string which caused the parse to end (typically a null terminator, if str is completely parseable).
