+* long_prefix_pattern configuration variable.
+
+ prefix_pattern has now been complemented by a new configuration
+ option 'long_prefix_pattern' that allows the user to specify what
+ prefix patterns should have long option style sematics applied.
+ This will enable people to do things like
+
+ foo.pl /option=value
+
+ instead of forcing people to use the short option style
+
+ foo.pl /option value
+
+ This enhancement was suggested and implemented by Yves Orton.
