1@c This file is designed to be included in manuals that use 2@c expandargv. 3 4@item @@@var{file} 5Read command-line options from @var{file}. The options read are 6inserted in place of the original @@@var{file} option. If @var{file} 7does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated 8literally, and not removed. 9 10Options in @var{file} are separated by whitespace. A whitespace 11character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire 12option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a 13backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included 14with a backslash. The @var{file} may itself contain additional 15@@@var{file} options; any such options will be processed recursively. 16
