+    ## Define an option. +name+ is the option name, a unique identifier
+    ## for the option that you will use internally, which should be a
+    ## symbol or a string. +desc+ is a string description which will be
+    ## displayed in help messages.
+    ##
+    ## Takes the following optional arguments:
+    ##
+    ## [+:long+] Specify the long form of the argument, i.e. the form with two dashes. If unspecified, will be automatically derived based on the argument name by turning the +name+ option into a string, and replacing any _'s by -'s.
+    ## [+:short+] Specify the short form of the argument, i.e. the form with one dash. If unspecified, will be automatically derived from +name+. Use :none: to not have a short value.
+    ## [+:type+] Require that the argument take a parameter or parameters of type +type+. For a single parameter, the value can be a member of +SINGLE_ARG_TYPES+, or a corresponding Ruby class (e.g. +Integer+ for +:int+). For multiple-argument parameters, the value can be any member of +MULTI_ARG_TYPES+ constant. If unset, the default argument type is +:flag+, meaning that the argument does not take a parameter. The specification of +:type+ is not necessary if a +:default+ is given.
+    ## [+:default+] Set the default value for an argument. Without a default value, the hash returned by #parse (and thus Optimist::options) will have a +nil+ value for this key unless the argument is given on the commandline. The argument type is derived automatically from the class of the default value given, so specifying a +:type+ is not necessary if a +:default+ is given. (But see below for an important caveat when +:multi+: is specified too.) If the argument is a flag, and the default is set to +true+, then if it is specified on the the commandline the value will be +false+.
+    ## [+:required+] If set to +true+, the argument must be provided on the commandline.
+    ## [+:multi+] If set to +true+, allows multiple occurrences of the option on the commandline. Otherwise, only a single instance of the option is allowed. (Note that this is different from taking multiple parameters. See below.)
+    ## [+:permitted+] Specify an Array of permitted values for an option. If the user provides a value outside this list, an error is thrown.
+    ##
+    ## Note that there are two types of argument multiplicity: an argument
+    ## can take multiple values, e.g. "--arg 1 2 3". An argument can also
+    ## be allowed to occur multiple times, e.g. "--arg 1 --arg 2".
+    ##
+    ## Arguments that take multiple values should have a +:type+ parameter
+    ## drawn from +MULTI_ARG_TYPES+ (e.g. +:strings+), or a +:default:+
+    ## value of an array of the correct type (e.g. [String]). The
+    ## value of this argument will be an array of the parameters on the
+    ## commandline.
+    ##
+    ## Arguments that can occur multiple times should be marked with
+    ## +:multi+ => +true+. The value of this argument will also be an array.
+    ## In contrast with regular non-multi options, if not specified on
+    ## the commandline, the default value will be [], not nil.
+    ##
+    ## These two attributes can be combined (e.g. +:type+ => +:strings+,
+    ## +:multi+ => +true+), in which case the value of the argument will be
+    ## an array of arrays.
+    ##
+    ## There's one ambiguous case to be aware of: when +:multi+: is true and a
+    ## +:default+ is set to an array (of something), it's ambiguous whether this
+    ## is a multi-value argument as well as a multi-occurrence argument.
+    ## In thise case, Optimist assumes that it's not a multi-value argument.
+    ## If you want a multi-value, multi-occurrence argument with a default
+    ## value, you must specify +:type+ as well.

+  ## The easy, syntactic-sugary entry method into Optimist. Creates a Parser,
+  ## passes the block to it, then parses +args+ with it, handling any errors or
+  ## requests for help or version information appropriately (and then exiting).
+  ## Modifies +args+ in place. Returns a hash of option values.
+  ##
+  ## The block passed in should contain zero or more calls to +opt+
+  ## (Parser#opt), zero or more calls to +text+ (Parser#text), and
+  ## probably a call to +version+ (Parser#version).
+  ##
+  ## The returned block contains a value for every option specified with
+  ## +opt+.  The value will be the value given on the commandline, or the
+  ## default value if the option was not specified on the commandline. For
+  ## every option specified on the commandline, a key "<option
+  ## name>_given" will also be set in the hash.
+  ##
+  ## Example:
+  ##
+  ##   require 'optimist'
+  ##   opts = Optimist::options do
+  ##     opt :monkey, "Use monkey mode"                    # a flag --monkey, defaulting to false
+  ##     opt :name, "Monkey name", :type => :string        # a string --name <s>, defaulting to nil
+  ##     opt :num_limbs, "Number of limbs", :default => 4  # an integer --num-limbs <i>, defaulting to 4
+  ##   end
+  ##
+  ##   ## if called with no arguments
+  ##   p opts # => {:monkey=>false, :name=>nil, :num_limbs=>4, :help=>false}
+  ##
+  ##   ## if called with --monkey
+  ##   p opts # => {:monkey=>true, :name=>nil, :num_limbs=>4, :help=>false, :monkey_given=>true}

+  ## If Optimist::options doesn't do quite what you want, you can create a Parser
+  ## object and call Parser#parse on it. That method will throw CommandlineError,
+  ## HelpNeeded and VersionNeeded exceptions when necessary; if you want to
+  ## have these handled for you in the standard manner (e.g. show the help
+  ## and then exit upon an HelpNeeded exception), call your code from within
+  ## a block passed to this method.
+  ##
+  ## Note that this method will call System#exit after handling an exception!
+  ##
+  ## Usage example:
+  ##
+  ##   require 'optimist'
+  ##   p = Optimist::Parser.new do
+  ##     opt :monkey, "Use monkey mode"                     # a flag --monkey, defaulting to false
+  ##     opt :goat, "Use goat mode", :default => true       # a flag --goat, defaulting to true
+  ##   end
+  ##
+  ##   opts = Optimist::with_standard_exception_handling p do
+  ##     o = p.parse ARGV
+  ##     raise Optimist::HelpNeeded if ARGV.empty? # show help screen
+  ##     o
+  ##   end
+  ##
+  ## Requires passing in the parser object.
+
+  def with_standard_exception_handling(parser)
+    yield
+  rescue CommandlineError => e
+    parser.die(e.message, nil, e.error_code)
+  rescue HelpNeeded
+    parser.educate
+    exit
+  rescue VersionNeeded
+    puts parser.version
+    exit
+  end
+
+  ## Informs the user that their usage of 'arg' was wrong, as detailed by
+  ## 'msg', and dies. Example:
+  ##
+  ##   options do
+  ##     opt :volume, :default => 0.0
+  ##   end
+  ##
+  ##   die :volume, "too loud" if opts[:volume] > 10.0
+  ##   die :volume, "too soft" if opts[:volume] < 0.1
+  ##
+  ## In the one-argument case, simply print that message, a notice
+  ## about -h, and die. Example:
+  ##
+  ##   options do
+  ##     opt :whatever # ...
+  ##   end
+  ##
+  ##   Optimist::die "need at least one filename" if ARGV.empty?
+  ##
+  ## An exit code can be provide if needed
+  ##
+  ##   Optimist::die "need at least one filename", -2 if ARGV.empty?
+  def die(arg, msg = nil, error_code = nil)

+  ## Displays the help message and dies. Example:
+  ##
+  ##   options do
+  ##     opt :volume, :default => 0.0
+  ##     banner <<-EOS
+  ##   Usage:
+  ##          #$0 [options] <name>
+  ##   where [options] are:
+  ##   EOS
+  ##   end

+  ##   Optimist::educate if ARGV.empty?
