Vincent Driessen <vinc...@datafox.nl> added the comment: Actually, this is a rather common concept. Broadly used tools like for example Git use this kind of subcommand handling.
This command shows all remotes: git remote (i.e. is like git remote list) Showing/removing remotes is done using subsubcommands: git remote show [...] git remote rm [...] That, in combination with the explicit design goal that "[argparse] isn't dogmatic about what your command line interface should look like" should be enough reason to be wanting this, in my humble opinion. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9253> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
