- ``#-max`` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\d+$" are valid. When seen they are assigned to the variable ``_flag_max``. This allows any valid positive or negative integer to be specified by prefixing it with a single "-". Many commands support this idiom. For example ``head -3 /a/file`` to emit only the first three lines of /a/file. - ``#-max`` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\\d+$" are valid.

- ``n#max`` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\d+$" are valid. When seen they are assigned to the variables ``_flag_n`` and ``_flag_max``. This allows any valid positive or negative integer to be specified by prefixing it with a single "-". Many commands support this idiom. For example ``head -3 /a/file`` to emit only the first three lines of /a/file. You can also specify the value using either flag: ``-n NNN`` or ``--max NNN`` in this example. - ``n#max`` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\\d+$" are valid.

After parsing the arguments the ``argv`` var is set with local scope to any values not already consumed during flag processing. If there are not unbound values the var is set but ``count $argv`` will be zero.
