New submission from Phillip Feldman <[email protected]>:

I tried switching from `optparse` to `argparse`, but ended up reverting back 
because `argparse` does not respect double quotes.  For example, `optparse` 
correctly parses the following, while `argparse` does not:

   python myprog.py --ng --INP="Demo IO"

(`argparse` splits "Demo" and "IO" into separate tokens).
