Eric Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: Good point, I hadn't thought of that. Maybe ArgumentParser needs a "don't try to be so helpful, parse like optparse" option. Which is what Steven suggested earlier, I believe.
I'd take a crack at this if there's general consensus on that solution. We can change the documentation to point out the issue now, but the feature request can only go in 3.3. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9334> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
