In addition to the ignore-invalid-option (commit 41d56433) it is often
useful to mark options in a configuration which as NOP. For example
options which have no more function at all but can be expected to be
found in existing conf files. Such an option (or command) may now be
given as
ARGPARSE_ignore (300, "obsolete-option")
The 300 is merely used as a non-valid single option name much like
group names or the 500+n values used for long options.

This option is currently of no use. However, as soon as it has been
deployed in all stable versions of GnuPG, it will allow the use of the
same configuration file with an old and a new version of GnuPG. For
example: If a new version implements the option "foobar", and a user
uses it in gpg.conf, an old version of gpg would bail out with the
error "invalid option". To avoid that the following line can be put
above that option in gpg.conf
ignore-invalid-option foobar
This meta option may be given several times or several option names
may be given as arguments (space delimited). Note that this option is
not available on the command line.
The asymmetric quotes used by GNU in the past (`...') don't render
nicely on modern systems. We now use two \x27 characters ('...').
The proper solution would be to use the correct Unicode symmetric
quotes here. However this has the disadvantage that the system
requires Unicode support. We don't want that today. If Unicode is
available a generated po file can be used to output proper quotes. A
simple sed script like the one used for en@quote is sufficient to
change them.
The changes have been done by applying
sed -i "s/\`\([^'\`]*\)'/'\1'/g"
to most files and fixing obvious problems by hand. The msgid strings in
the po files were fixed with a similar command.
GnuPG requires that options are given before other arguments. This
can sometimes be confusing. We now print a warning if we found an
argument looking alike a long option without being preceded by the
stop option. This is bug#1343.
