[Toybox] About supporting long(--) option

Hello all,

I have a question about treating long(--) option in toybox.

There are two style options - short(-) and long(--) - in linux system.
(

)

I know toybox supports only short option, so toybox cannot treat '--help'
option.

Is there special reason for not supporting long option?

Thanks.

Kyungwan Han.
