Subject: | Arg.spec and option types |
Hi list, I find the recent addition of the Set_{string|int|float} constructors of type Arg.spec quite useful, as it spares a lot of repeated code for processing command line arguments. However, for optional arguments, I often feel the need (and write the code) to handle option types, which can elegantly be processed to trigger optional behaviours of a program. I think it would therefore be quite useful to add Set_option_{string|int|float} constructors which would expect {string|int|float} option ref values as arguments (usually initialized with None). Do others think the same or use some other workaround to obtain this behaviour ? -- Nicolas
