[issue16678] optparse: parse only known options
New submission from anatoly techtonik: This following recipe from Optik examples should be added to documentation.

R. David Murray added the comment: We aren't encouraging people to use optparse any more. The recipe isn't needed in argparse, as that has a "parse_known_args" method that achieves the same end. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16678> _______________________________________
