@end deftypefun
Two options, @samp{-g} (assume you are compiling with GNU C and its
@code{inline} feature) and @samp{-a} (assume ANSI C-style function
prototypes), alter the content of both the generated @code{hash} and
@code{in_word_set} routines. However, function @code{in_word_set} may
be modified more extensively, in response to your option settings. The
options that affect the @code{in_word_set} structure are:
If the option @samp{-c} is not used, @var{str} must be a NUL terminated
string of exactly length @var{len}. If @samp{-c} is used, @var{str} must
simply be an array of @var{len} characters and does not need to be NUL
terminated.
The code generated for these two functions is affected by the following
