Hello, After using OptionParser for a while, I'm starting to wonder about something. Why can't all of its features be applied to positional arguments just as well as options? I have the same need for type checking, storage into a variable, callbacks, etc. with positional arguments as I do with options. Why not rename the class to ArgumentParser and extend it to support positional args as it does options? -John Belmonte -- http:// if l . / ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SlickEdit Inc.
