# def run
# print usage.to_s
arggh, i did not try the to_s :)
thanks
# exit
# end
# the reason that the 'to_s' is required is that the usage returns and
# object that inherits from array and ruby treats 'puts an_array'
# specially. i should changed that in the next version... regardless
# 'usage.to_s' will continue to work.
no problem, ara. The usage.to_s is good enough.
# i'd be interested to see what you come up with for an auto usage
# message - that part was very hard for me and i'm not sure
# mine is the
# best.
#
no, the automessage part is fine.
my plan really is to add more info on --help and i was looking where to add more :)
eg, i want to add sections like "other info", "gotchas", "copyright", "reporting bugs", and "see also".
# glad you are using it, and the feedback is really welcome - it's
# surprisingly difficult to get this working smoothly for even
# a modest
# sample of command line apps - there are a lot of variables! ;-)

# look for main-2.0.1 later today...
it's working great. really. my suggestions were purely cosmetics. and btw, the new mode option is cool.
many thanks again.
kind regards -botp
