# clig\_Long(7)

declare an option with parameters of type long

## NAME

::clig::Long - declare an option with parameters of type long

## SYNOPSIS

```
package require clig
namespace import ::clig::*
setSpec db
```

**Long -***opt varname usage* \[**-c** *min max*\] {\[**-d** *default ...*\] \| \[**-m**\]} \[**-r** *rmin rmax*\]

## DESCRIPTION

The **Long** command works exactly as the  **Int** command except that the generated C parser works with values of type **long** instead of **int**. For the Tcl parser it does not make a difference.
