Functions
- FancyGetopt(cmd, option_table, args)
-
Parses command line options and parameter list. args is the argument list
to be parsed, without the leading reference to the running program.
Typically, this means "sys.argv[1:]". option_table is an instance of
Ft.Lib.CommandLine.Options.Options. Raises an exception if args contains
syntax errors. Returns a tuple of (options, args) where options is a
dictionary and args is the list of args after the first arg that wasn't
in option_table. Note the options return value is different than what
getopt.getopt() returns.
cmd is an Ft.Lib.CommandLine.Command instance, and is only used
in reporting errors.
