-/*
- * Command-line parsing library
- *
- * This module is an optparse-inspired command-line parsing library that:
- *
- *     - handles both optional and positional arguments
- *     - produces highly informative usage messages
- *     - supports parsers that dispatch to sub-parsers
- *
- * The following is a simple usage example that sums integers from the
- * command-line and writes the result to a file::
- *
- *     parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
- *         description='sum the integers at the command line')
- *     parser.add_argument(
- *         'integers', metavar='int', nargs='+', type=int,
- *         help='an integer to be summed')
- *     parser.add_argument(
- *         '--log', default=sys.stdout, type=argparse.FileType('w'),
- *         help='the file where the sum should be written')
- *     args = parser.parse_args()
- *     args.log.write('%s' % sum(args.integers))
- *     args.log.close()
- *
- * The module contains the following public classes:
- *
- *     - ArgumentParser -- The main entry point for command-line parsing. As the
- *         example above shows, the add_argument() method is used to populate
- *         the parser with actions for optional and positional arguments. Then
- *         the parse_args() method is invoked to convert the args at the
- *         command-line into an object with attributes.
- *
- *     - ArgumentError -- The exception raised by ArgumentParser objects when
- *         there are errors with the parser's actions. Errors raised while
- *         parsing the command-line are caught by ArgumentParser and emitted
- *         as command-line messages.
- *
- *     - FileType -- A factory for defining types of files to be created. As the
- *         example above shows, instances of FileType are typically passed as
- *         the type= argument of add_argument() calls.
- *
- *     - Action -- The base class for parser actions. Typically actions are
- *         selected by passing strings like 'store_true' or 'append_const' to
- *         the action= argument of add_argument(). However, for greater
- *         customization of ArgumentParser actions, subclasses of Action may
- *         be defined and passed as the action= argument.
- *
- *     - HelpFormatter, RawDescriptionHelpFormatter, RawTextHelpFormatter,
- *         ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter -- Formatter classes which
- *         may be passed as the formatter_class= argument to the
- *         ArgumentParser constructor. HelpFormatter is the default,
- *         RawDescriptionHelpFormatter and RawTextHelpFormatter tell the parser
- *         not to change the formatting for help text, and
- *         ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter adds information about argument defaults
- *         to the help.
- *
- * All other classes in this module are considered implementation details.
- * (Also note that HelpFormatter and RawDescriptionHelpFormatter are only
- * considered public as object names -- the API of the formatter objects is
- * still considered an implementation detail.)

-     *          nargs=1, a list containing a single value will be produced.

-     *          returns the converted value.  The standard Python types str, int,
-     *          float, and complex are useful examples of such callables.  If None,
-     *          str is used.
-     *
