**[feature-requests:#110] Move from "optparse" to "argparse".**

**Status:** open
**Group:** None
**Created:** Thu Jan 06, 2022 03:02 PM UTC by Günter Milde

**Owner:** Günter Milde


The optparse documentation says:
> Deprecated since version 3.2: The optparse module is deprecated and will not be developed further; development will continue with the argparse module.

We are currently suppressing related deprecation warnings in the test suite.
After raising the Python dependency to >=3.7, now may be the right time to make the move.
