Yeah, I have been hearing that people are having troubles converting, but I
have only used argparse - got lucky there I guess.
I am thinking just making the function which spits the class out. Maybe not
very optimised solution, but simple.

Thanks. It occurs to me that instead of providing two special actions
("help" and "version"), it might be worthwhile to provide a standard way of
saying, "if present, process this option and exit before considering other

Thanks, Mats.
I actually searched all over the argparse docs. (There's a lot to digest.
Honestly, if I wasn't attempting to be sort of up-to-dat
Use two parsers:
import argparse
import sys
vparser = argparse.ArgumentParser(add_help=False)
vparser.add_argument('--version',action="store_true",help="show version")
# look for version, ignore remaining arguments
vargs, _ = vparser.parse_known_args()

Thanks. An action class didn't occur to me. I looked briefly at the
code
I wondered whether subparsers might work, but they don't quite fit here.
This seems to fit the bill fairly well, though I agree it would be
nice if there were a neater option:

import sys
VERSION = 0.1

I expect argparse to forward iterate the sequence of arguments that it

But I admit that this is a very simple and intelligent module. ;-)

Hi,
On relfection, it's clear that:
1. the "(-a -b VALUE-B | -c -d VALUE-D)" syntax is not
implemented by the argparse module;
2. and get this syntax with "argparse + hacking" is not very clean.
So, finally I'll use the docopt module version 0.6.1.
For the inheritance of common options, I'll us

Yes, but this is not the same syntax. I want this syntax :
my-script (-a -b VALUE-B | -c -d VALUE-D)
I don't want this syntax:

Is it possible with argparse to have this syntax for a script?

I would like to do this with the argparse module.
Thanks in advance.

The problem here is that argparse does not pass the subparser into the
parsed args and shared args between subparsers need to be declared
each time. Come execution time, when

You can probably do something similar using sub commands
(http://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html#sub-commands).
