[Python-Dev] Optik 1.5 in Python 2.4

Hope I'm not too late to get Optik 1.5 into Python 2.4.  I release Optik
1.5a1 last weekend and so far haven't heard a peep of complaint.
Sneaking it into Python 2.4a2 would help ferret out any compatibility
bugs.  (The changes are pretty small; the only reason I called it Optik
1.5 instead of 1.4.2 is because there are a bunch of small changes, and
it's over a year since 1.4.1.  ;-)

The only catch is that I've updated the Optik reStructuredText docs, and
haven't yet devised a clever way to convert them to LaTeX-for-the-
Python-manual format (talking about optparse rather than Optik).  (Code
donations welcome.  ;-)

So: I'd like to checkin Optik 1.5a1 as optparse.py right now, and worry
about the docs later.  Hopefully before Python 2.4a2 goes out the door,
but no promises.  Objections?  If I don't hear any soon, I'll do the
deed tomorrow morning.

Everybody is going somewhere!!  It's probably a garage sale
or a disaster Movie!!
