Hey.

If your element takes a lot of arguments you may be interested in keyword
arguments which got added recently.

Now you can say for example

CheckTCPHeader(VERBOSE true, DETAILS false)
	       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	       these are keyword argumewnts

using a call like this:

      cp_va_parse(conf, this, errh,
		  cpKeywords,
		  "VERBOSE", cpBool, "be verbose?", &verbose,
		  "DETAILS", cpBool, "keep detailed counts?", &details,
		  0);

love, ed
