 * @G_OPTION_FLAG_REVERSE: For options of the %G_OPTION_ARG_NONE kind, this
 *     flag indicates that the sense of the option is reversed.
 * @G_OPTION_FLAG_NO_ARG: For options of the %G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK kind,
 *     this flag indicates that the callback does not take any argument
 *     (like a %G_OPTION_ARG_NONE option). Since 2.8
 * @G_OPTION_FLAG_FILENAME: For options of the %G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK
 *     kind, this flag indicates that the argument should be passed to the

 * @G_OPTION_FLAG_OPTIONAL_ARG: For options of the %G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK 
 *     kind, this flag indicates that the argument supply is optional.
 *     If no argument is given then data of %GOptionParseFunc will be
 *     set to NULL. Since 2.8
 * @G_OPTION_FLAG_NOALIAS: This flag turns off the automatic conflict
 *     resolution which prefixes long option names with `groupname-` if 
 *     there is a conflict. This option should only be used in situations
 *     where aliasing is necessary to model some legacy commandline interface.
 *     It is not safe to use this option, unless all option groups are under
 *     your direct control. Since 2.8.

 * @arg: The type of the option, as a #GOptionArg
 * @arg_data: If the @arg type is %G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK, then @arg_data
 *     must point to a #GOptionArgFunc callback function, which will be

 *     of the group, see g_option_group_set_translation_domain().
 * @arg_description: The placeholder to use for the extra argument parsed
 *     by the option in `--help` output. The @arg_description is translated
