   Input Parameters:

-  len - maximum length of the string including null termination

   Output Parameters:
+  string - location to copy string

   Fortran Note:
   The Fortran interface is slightly different from the C/C++
   interface (len is not used).  Sample usage in Fortran follows
.vb
      character *20 string
      integer   flg, ierr
      call PetscOptionsGetString(PETSC_NULL_CHARACTER,'-s',string,flg,ierr)
.ve

   Notes: if the option is given but no string is provided then an empty string is returned and set is given the value of PETSC_TRUE

   Concepts: options database^string

    Note:
      Even if the user provided no string (for example -optionname -someotheroption) the flag is set to PETSC_TRUE (and the string is fulled with nulls).
