I'll give plac a run and see how it behaves.
After using optparse a couple of times I got the hang of it. Maybe its
docs could be organized a bit better, but it does the obvious things
conveniently once you've figured it out a bit.
Same from here. I managed to talk a Java-drilled collegue of mine into
writing a Python script for a little command line utility, but he needed a
way to organise his argument extraction code when the number of arguments
started to grow beyond two. I told him that there were two ways to do it:
do it by hand or do it right. He took the right choice and I took him to
the optparse docs, copied the first example into his code and we adapted it
a little. He just loved the beauty of it.
