9.5.6 subblock option

This is the "subblock definition names" option.

This option has some usage constraints. It:

This option is used to create shorthand entries for nested definitions. For example, with:

using subblock thus
--subblock=arg=argname,type,null
and defining an arg thus
arg: this, char *
will then expand to:
arg = { argname = this; type = "char *"; };
The "this, char *" string is separated at the commas, with the white space removed. You may use characters other than commas by starting the value string with a punctuation character other than a single or double quote character. You may also omit intermediate values by placing the commas next to each other with no intervening white space. For example, "+mumble++yes+" will expand to:
arg = { argname = mumble; null = "yes"; };.
