-  ## 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+.
-  ## [+: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 Trollop::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.)
-  ##
-  ## 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, Trollop 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 top-level entry method into Trollop. Creates a Parser object,
-## 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 'trollop'
-##   opts = Trollop::options 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
-##     opt :num_limbs, "Number of limbs", :default => 4   # an integer --num-limbs <i>, defaulting to 4
-##     opt :num_thumbs, "Number of thumbs", :type => :int # an integer --num-thumbs <i>, defaulting to nil
-##   end
-##
-##   ## if called with no arguments
-##   p opts # => { :monkey => false, :goat => true, :num_limbs => 4, :num_thumbs => nil }
-##
-##   ## if called with --monkey
-##   p opts # => {:monkey_given=>true, :monkey=>true, :goat=>true, :num_limbs=>4, :help=>false, :num_thumbs=>nil}
