Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: No. parse_known_args assumes you have known and unknown args intermixed.
Going back to the original example, what if "hack" and ":target" had overlapping parameter names (say, they both supported "--arg1")? I think parse_known_args would pick up all instances of "--arg1". I really want "--" to mean "treat everything else as non-optional arguments". Whether that's the original intent, I don't know. But as David says, unless it is, it's impossible to implement such a scheme with argparse. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13922> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
