New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com>: With the current argparse docs, it's very hard to get a quick reminder of how to spell the various parameters for add_argument, and just what they do. This issue suggests adding a "Quick Reference" section for add_argument, with the following elements:
1. Summary table with a one line description of each parameter 2. Summary table with a one line description of each alternative for the "action" parameter (including noting which other parameters are potentially relevant, such as 'choices' and 'metavar' for 'store' and 'const' for 'store_const') 3. Summary table with a one line description of each alternative for the "nargs" parameter ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 151880 nosy: bethard, docs@python, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Summary tables for argparse add_argument options versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13850> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
