.. _`argparse.REMAINDER`:
* ``argparse.REMAINDER``. All the remaining command-line arguments are gathered
into a list. This is commonly useful for command line utilities that dispatch
to other command line utilities::
>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
>>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
>>> parser.add_argument('command')
>>> parser.add_argument('args', nargs=argparse.REMAINDER)
>>> print(parser.parse_args('--foo B cmd --arg1 XX ZZ'.split()))
Namespace(args=['--arg1', 'XX', 'ZZ'], command='cmd', foo='B')
If the ``nargs`` keyword argument is not provided, the number of arguments consumed
is determined by the action_. Generally this means a single command-line argument
will be consumed and a single item (not a list) will be produced.
