Command line parsing of integer arguments with genparse

[Michael Geng]

Hi,

I extended genparse such that it is now able to parse also long, 
unsigned long, intmax_t, uintmax_t and double command line arguments. 
The attached patch will invoke genparse to generate command line 
parsers for the ls, tail and wc commands. I already submitted similar 
patches some time ago, this one shows for the tail command how it parses 
integer and double values. The patch is targeted to the git version from
yesterday (Oct. 8). I verified that it passes "make distcheck".

You can get the latest version of genparse, updated docu and
examples from http://genparse.sourceforge.net/ as usual. You will
need version 0.7.1 of genparse in your path if you want to compile
this patch yourself. You can especially find the generated parser
code for the tail command from 
http://genparse.sourceforge.net/examples/tail_clp.c.
