Yeah, that’s true. And honestly, I can’t imagine how any of them _could_ become a category killer, because the category is just so broad; there are just too many things you sometimes want to be simpler or more automated than argparse, and they sometimes even conflict with each other. (For example, fire calling literal_eval on args is great for a lot of quick&dirty scripts, but would be disastrous for many other programs.) So… never mind. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/SGHV3KSUMPC6YLP2JHJAK3JR7QXY52Y2/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
