New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com>: Currently, using add_subparsers() means that the entire list of subcommands is added to the main usage message. This gets rather unwieldy when there are a lot of subcommands.
It would be nice if the add_subparsers() method accepted a "metavar" argument that would be substituted into the usage string instead of using the subparser list directly. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 153516 nosy: bethard, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Add "metavar" argument to add_subparsers() in argparse type: enhancement versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14039> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
