Hi Damian,First of all, let me tell you that I red your book nd you are like a living god !!!The book is opened on my desk even before the laptop is opened and I pushed my colleagues to go for it. (actually, I don't want to borrow it).I tried Getopt::Euclid and will adopt it for sure. I just miss the mutually exclusive options and the options only available with other options but this would be the cherry on top of the cake...I tried the module and I cannot get the version 0.1.0 to give my own error message with the following POD:=item -d[ir] <download_dir>Specifies an alternate download directory. By default, all packages are downloaded into the current directory (the directory from where the bl_upgrade script was launched NOT the directory where bl_upgrade is).The packages are temporarilly extracted to /tmp during their installation.=for Euclid: download_dir.default: "." download_dir.type: string, -d download_dir && -w download_dir download_dir.type.error: download_dir is not writable or does not exist It must be something wrong with my code but I could'n figure out my bug.Best regards,Pierre.

Hi Pierre, Thank you for your bug report! Try a recent version of Getopt::Euclid. I tried the attached script with version 0.2.4 and custom error messages work as expected. I also implemented a way the 'exclude' attribute to specify which arguments cannot be specified simultaneously.
