Hello,
Is there support/idioms/suggestions for using optparse without a
command line?
I have a code which used to be called through subprocess. The whole
flow of the code is based on what 'options' object from optparse
contains.
Now I want to call this code without subprocessing. What I did first
was to build a "fake" command-line and use
options, args = parser.parse_args(fake_cmdline)
But I find it dumb to encode and decode a dictionary... So I would
like to know how I if there is a good way of passing a dictionary to
optparse and benefiting from its option management (check, error
detection, etc).
Thanks a lot!

Move to the best module on args parsing: argparse it is way, way, way
better no equivalent in any others language.
No tuple when parsing but a simple Namespace objects and very easy to
port. Go have a look in std libs (>=v2.7).
