Hi, if planning to make changes to --help output, could you please try to preserve the output formatting as much as possible? I'm trying to fix the bitrot in the emacs-guix "shell commands" code, which actually parses the --help output using regexs, and and generates magit-popup menus based on that. So little things like the number of spaces on the line before the command name actually matter.

Sounds interesting.

I guess you are being implicit regarding the spacing order?
It may be more resilient to consider counting the number of opening spaces/tabs and then compare the results.

In any case Id like to look at the uri to see how Transient is operating off your PEGs.

Thanks for working on this!

Kind regards,


Jonathan
