Add (optional) -w option to support 16-bit word output #5

Add file_count to fix size in words

Thanks for the contribution! Sorry about how much of a mess this code base is... I'll clean it up at some point.
I like the optional array name feature, that is very nice.
I have some code cleanup comments for you (I'm happy to do this if you don't feel like it). Would also be nice to extend the test to cover the optional name of the array and the -w flag, (maybe I'll play around with travis for some CI action here).
If you're in the mood for doing it, I don't like the K&R variable declarations at the start of the function, so if you can (at least for all the new variables you introduced) declare them at first use. You may need to add a -std=c99 in the Makefile if your compiler complains about that, but it'll clean up the code a lot I hope. Maybe extract a function here or there if you want to (the bit that does the underscoring seems a good candidate).

Should probably use strncpy here

Alternatively, could malloc the correct size (strdup comes to mind). Just don't forget to free it at the end :D

Are you going to handle the case where the first character is a number?

Please keep consistent identation :)

How about array_size instead of file_count?

In theory and in most cases it is really implemented that way.
Short is 16 bit AT LEAST(!) by ANSI-C standart, but you can not guarantee it, it is compiler-implementation-dependent.
(Only the minimum/maximum values have to be assured, but the developers might have decided to exceed them for some unknown reasons)
If you want to be absolutely sure, better use "uint16_t" instead, this is guaranteed to really be 16 bit in size.
(OK, in most cases this is a typedef to unsigned short, but better be safe than sorry.)

almost forgot: for uint16_t to be recognized, the library <stdint.h> has to be included.
I made a minor change to support an (optional) -w flag to support 16-bit word output in addition to the 8-bit byte output.
