Stop parsing options/flags at literal `--`
llchan opened this issue · comments
Many argument parser implementations (including python argparse
) treat a literal --
as a marker that breaks out of full argument parsing and collects the remaining args as positional/remaining arguments. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this library does not support that out of the box. I was able to sort of emulate it with an explicit --
remaining-argument in a mutually exclusive group with a positional-remaining argument, but that adds a bunch of extra complexity to the implementation as well as extra noise in the help/usage message.
