+=== Option Arguments
+
+An option may take no argument, a required argument, or an optional argument.
+
+==== Option with No Argument
+
+All the examples above define options with no argument.
+
+==== Option with Required Argument
+
+Specify a required argument for an option by adding a dummy word
+to its name definition.
+
+File +required_argument.rb+ defines two options;
+each has a required argument because the name definition has a following dummy word.
+
+  :include: required_argument.rb

+When an option is found, the given argument is yielded.

+Omitting a required argument raises an error:
