+###### bool ParseArguments(ParameterList Parameters[], int argc, const char \*argv[], const char \*\*\*argvEnd=NULL) ######
+
+Parameters are filled with associated arguments. 
+                
+The function assumes argv\[0\] is the program name, so it is skipped. If parsing should start from a center argument, (i.e. i >= 1) set &argv\[i-1\] and argc-i+1.
+
+Parsing ends when all the arguments are parsed sucessfully or at the first argument that has no associated parameter.
+
+If argvEnd is not NULL, the argvEnd is set to the argument that didn't parse and the function returns true.
+
+If argvEnd is NULL, the function returns false.

+        bool Debug = false;
+        ParameterList Parameters[] =
+                {
+                        {"-f",&Filename,NULL},
+                        {"-tf",&TraceFilename,NULL},
+                        {"-exclude+",&ExcludeFilename,&WriteExcludeList},
+                        {"-exclude-",NULL,&NoExcludeList},
+                        {"-exclude",&ExcludeFilename,NULL},
+                        {"-debug",NULL,&Debug},
+                        {NULL,NULL,NULL}
+                };
+        bool Status = ParseArguments(Parameters,argc,argv);
+        if (!Status)
+                {
+                Help(argv[0]);
+                return 1;
