New submission from Steve Carter: Originally raise as https://github.com/python/pythondotorg/issues/1059 Although it's a reference page, it is clouded by too many examples and too little reference material. Moreover, the examples are not real-world applications of argument parsing. I propose removing the "process some integers" example, replacing it with something more typically gnu style, e.g., myapp.py [--quiet] [--log-level _n_] [--title=STR] {get | put} [FSPEC [, FSPEC...]]. This shows the user how to to many of the common command-line tasks. [I'm tentatively offering to do this, but I haven't yet found the content I need to revise.] ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 289569 nosy: docs@python, sweavo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ArgParse page in library reference rewrite versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29807> _______________________________________
