| <dt><em>Arguments</em>:</dt> |
| <dd><table> |

| |
| </dd> |
| <dt><em>Return value</em>:</dt> |
| <dd><p>After <code>GET_COMMAND_ARGUMENT</code> returns, the <var>VALUE</var> argument holds the |
| <var>NUMBER</var>-th command line argument. If <var>VALUE</var> can not hold the argument, it is |
| truncated to fit the length of <var>VALUE</var>. If there are less than <var>NUMBER</var> |
| arguments specified at the command line, <var>VALUE</var> will be filled with blanks. |
| If <em><var>NUMBER</var> = 0</em>, <var>VALUE</var> is set to the name of the program (on |
| systems that support this feature). The <var>LENGTH</var> argument contains the |
| length of the <var>NUMBER</var>-th command line argument. If the argument retrieval |
| fails, <var>STATUS</var> is a positive number; if <var>VALUE</var> contains a truncated |
| command line argument, <var>STATUS</var> is -1; and otherwise the <var>STATUS</var> is |
| zero. |
