I use it frequently and I like the output it creates. I sure as hell like python's better than C#'s (== none at all and people doing all kinds of crazy broken crap inlined into Main(string[] args).

I've never managed to use optparse without the docs open though. I'm not sure that's a defect, but it seems like room for improvement.

Can someone (zed?) point at a library in any other language that's better?



I liked Getopt::Long in Perl. Even in Python, argparse or optfunc are better (IMHO)


And honestly, Zed's revolutionary replacement isn't that great (http://lamsonproject.org/docs/api/, see lamson.args/lamson.commands).
