Update of /projects/cvsroot/distutils/distutils
In directory newcnri:/tmp/cvs-serv16826
Modified Files:
fancy_getopt.py
Log Message:
Hefty refactoring: converted 'fancy_getopt()' function into FancyGetopt
class. (Mainly this was to support the ability to go back after the
getopt operation is done and get extra information about the parse,
in particular the original order of options seen on the command line.
But it's a big improvement and should make it a lot easier to add
functionality in the future.)
