--- modified to support non-options and to not call os.exit()

+-- sh_opts should be in standard getopt format: a string of letters that
+-- represent options, each followed by a colon if that option takes an argument.
+-- e.g.: 'ak:hv' has three flags (options with no arguments): 'a', 'h', and 'v'
+-- and one option that takes an argument: 'k'.
+--
+-- Options passed to the module to parse can be in any of the following formats:
+--   -kVALUE, -k VALUE, --key=VALUE, --key VALUE
+--   -abcd is equivalent to -a -b -c -d if none of them accept arguments.
+--   -abckVALUE and -abck VALUE are also acceptable (where k is the only option
+--      in the string that takes a value).
