For those console programmers out there... Is there anything in console

output that you like or wish you had. That way I could possibly add it and
make this even more useful to a wider audience.
Two things come to mind.
The first I don't know whether you have that on your list already: the
ability to change the prefixes ('-', '--') and the long argument separator
('='). Of course not specific to a single argument, but for all.
The second part is less output specific, but more DRY: a way to convert the
option list to TConsoleApplication's argument handling so that one doesn't
have to declare that twice.
Basically that should be a string for the short options
abc:e:f:g::
and an array of strings
['alert','bonus','config:','export:','file:','generate::']
where : means value required and :: means optional value.
Michael.
