Hey Fabio,

if(argc==1){
  printf("Syntax: ....\n");
  exit(1);
}
while ((c = getopt(argc, argv, "t:n:v")) != -1) {
     switch(c) {
        case 't':
            tvar = atoi(optarg); //check if optarg is numeric if not ->exit(1);
            break;
       case 'n':
            nvar = atoi(optarg); //same here..
            break;
....

Markus
