/**
 * @file sddsbreak.c
 * @brief Breaks up pages of an SDDS (Self Describing Data Sets) file into subpages based on various criteria.
 *
 * This program processes an SDDS file and splits its pages into subpages according to user-specified options.
 * Supported options allow for breaking based on gaps in data, increases or decreases of column values,
 * changes of specified amounts or bases, matching string patterns, row limits with optional overlaps,
 * and specifying the major order of data (row or column).
 *
 * ## Usage
 * ```
 * sddsbreak [OPTIONS] [<inputfile>] [<outputfile>]
 * ```
 *
 * ### Options:
 * - `-pipe=[input][,output]`
 *   - Use pipes for input and/or output.
 *
 * - `-gapin=<column-name>[,{amount=<value> | factor=<value>}]`
 *   - Break pages when the gap in the specified column exceeds a certain amount or factor.
 *
 * - `-increaseof=<column-name>[,amount=<value>[,cumulative][,reset]]`
 *   - Break pages when the specified column increases by a certain amount. Options allow for cumulative tracking and resetting.
 *
 * - `-decreaseof=<column-name>[,amount=<value>[,cumulative][,reset]]`
 *   - Break pages when the specified column decreases by a certain amount. Options allow for cumulative tracking and resetting.
 *
 * - `-changeof=<column-name>[,amount=<value>,base=<value>]`
 *   - Break pages based on changes in the specified column relative to a base value and by a specified amount.
 *
 * - `-matchto=<column-name>,<pattern>[,after]`
 *   - Break pages when a pattern is matched in the specified column. The `after` option determines if the break occurs after the match.
 *
 * - `-rowlimit=<integer>[,overlap=<integer>]`
 *   - Limit the number of rows per subpage with an optional overlap between consecutive subpages.
 *
 * - `-majorOrder=row|column`
 *   - Specify the major order of data as row-major or column-major.
