Hi John Sorry for the late response; I'm just getting back after a (very) long vacation and I've lots of mail to catch up on.
I only had a cursory look at Optz and it looks similar-ish to CLI (which is based on an existing implementaiton by Bob and merged with some ideas from Peter's). Would it be possible to combine any new features/abilities of Optz into CLI? It'd be nice just to have one library for working with command line arguments rather than maintaining 2 seperate ones that are quite similar. Or if you think Optz differs greatly from CLI maybe you could explain how/why we should move over to Optz instead?
