Oz Tiram added the comment: Hi,
I have been wanting this feature for quite a long time. IMHO, binaries and scripts should always include a man page. The Debian developers require that. However, man pages have a 'bizarre' format. Long talk, short time. I did implement something. I tested it on Python 2.7 since my project currently only supports Python 2.7. I think it should not be complicated to port to Python 3.X. I doubt if the correct place for formatting a man page should be in argparse.py itself. My solution is an extension of Andial's brecht solution that uses ofcourse argparse. You can see it in action in https://github.com/pwman3/pwman3 I am also attaching the code here. I hope you will find this file useful. I would appreciate your comments too.
