Subject: Show whether an option requires an argument in usage
It would be nice if the usage can show whether an option requires an argument. For example: Definition: [ 'port|p=i', "the port to connect to" ], So instead of -p --port the port to connect to it would print -p --port arg the port to connect to Adding the "arg" would make the usage more informative to the users. It would be nice if this behavior is configurable by providing an option to the describe_options() call.
Sounds cool. -- rjbs
I'm closing this ticket because I'm moving all tickets to GitHub. Such a feature request seems already represented there. -- rjbs
