Brian Egge updated CLI-131:
---------------------------
Attachment: bug131.patch
Fix the issue by sorting the options inside the HelpFormatter class. This fix
would be the least likely to cause problems with existing usage.
Another option would be to have the Options class use TreeMaps instead of
HashMaps.
> Options class returns options in random order

> The help formatter auto usage returns the options in a somewhat random order.
> This is because the options are inserted in a HashMap, and then a copy of
> the collection is returned with the getOptions() method.
> The getOptions method should return the options in the order they were added,
> or in a sorted order.
