Hello,

I wonder if optparse is dead ? because :

* svn access is down (svn co svn://starship.python.net/optik/trunk optik) ( http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php? thread_name=466F541C.6010804%40users.sourceforge.net&forum_name=optik- users )

* last release is out 2 years ago ( http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php? thread_name=20060723161651.GA2076%40cthulhu.gerg.ca&forum_name=optik- users )

* Greg Ward mail ( gward at python.net ) and is home page (http:// www.gerg.ca/) are away

* I'm interested by this feature http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=1819510&group_id=38019&atid=421097 but it hasn't comment since one year ago.

Otherwise optparse is a great module !

Well, the module itself certainly isn't dead since it's distributed with Python. What might be dead is the standalone version, Optik. However, we have so far delegated feature requests to Greg and expected them to be included in Optik first before being merged to the core. If Optik is no longer maintained, we can do this directly in the core, with Python's release cycle. Georg -- Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less. Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
