Greg Ward eba20e6015 Upgrade optparse module and tests to Optik 1.5a1:
* add expansion of default values in help text: the string
    "%default" in an option's help string is expanded to str() of
    that option's default value, or "none" if no default value.
  * bug #955889: option default values that happen to be strings are
    now processed in the same way as values from the command line; this
    allows generation of nicer help when using custom types.  Can
    be disabled with parser.set_process_default_values(False).
  * bug #960515: don't crash when generating help for callback
    options that specify 'type', but not 'dest' or 'metavar'.
  * feature #815264: change the default help format for short options
    that take an argument from e.g. "-oARG" to "-o ARG"; add
    set_short_opt_delimiter() and set_long_opt_delimiter() methods to
    HelpFormatter to allow (slight) customization of the formatting.
  * patch #736940: internationalize Optik: all built-in user-
    targeted literal strings are passed through gettext.gettext().  (If
    you want translations (.po files), they're not included with Python
    -- you'll find them in the Optik source distribution from
    http://optik.sourceforge.net/ .)
  * bug #878453: respect $COLUMNS environment variable for
    wrapping help output.
  * feature #988122: expand "%prog" in the 'description' passed
    to OptionParser, just like in the 'usage' and 'version' strings.
    (This is *not* done in the 'description' passed to OptionGroup.)

Fred Drake 456d3258d6 Fix support for the "prog" keyword to the OptionParser constructor, as well
as directly setting the .prog attribute (which should be supported based on
the class docstring).
Closes SF bug #850964.

Greg Ward 2492fcf3b0 Update to Optik 1.4.1; here are the relevant bits of the change log:
* Fixed some long-hidden bugs revealed by the new PyUnit-based
    test suite (thanks to Johannes Gijsbers the new test suite,
    improved tests that caught the bugs, and the bug fixes).

  * Make store_true/store_false store True/False rather than 1/0.

Details available in Optik's CVS repository.

Greg Ward 5bd844e20f Tweak __version__ -- the current code is between Optik 1.4 and 1.4.1. 2003-01-04 21:54:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b9ba45894a Checking in Greg Ward's Optik, as optparse.py. This is the most
recent version from Greg's CVS.  I've changed the module docstring,
added a copyright notice, and renamed OptikError to OptParseError.

Still to do are documentation and unit tests.
