I will plug in my own work on plac: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/plac Your problem would be solved as follows: import plac @plac.annotations(test=('a flag', 'flag', 't')) def main(test, *ignore): print test, ignore if __name__ == '__main__': plac.call(main, ["-t","--ignoreme_and_dont_fail"]) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
