Sandro Tosi <sandro.t...@gmail.com> added the comment: I finally had the time to look more closely to the issue, and I'd like to hear some comments on the info visualization.
Currently we have --help option to print: <usage + additional details about execution + more rigorous testing> <options> <verbosity> <selecting tests> <special runs> <additional options details> Now, AFAIK argparse it's not so flexible, so we have to draw a line and choose a trade-off. F.e., the additional options details: they can't be added in a help='..' kargs but they should be nonetheless be displayed when passing --help to regrtest.py. * <options>, <verbosity>, <selecting tests>, <special runs> can all be grouped up into argument groups. * <usage> can be managed "twisting a bit" the usage='...' karg of argparse.ArgumentParser * but what about <additional options details> ? should we add that to the usage='...' text? or should we somehow override the print_help() and show <usage> <options & options groups> (this is standard until here) <additional options details> (appending the text after options)? or something different I still don't imagine? :) Cheers, Sandro ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10848> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
