I'm using optparse.Optionparser to take switches for a script I'm writing, but I can't see how to give it -vv for very verbose.
the option for -v is simply set to True by the option parser if present, whereas I really want a numeric value, 1 if there is -v and 2 if there is -vv. Any ideas on how to do this? I think I'll have to stop using action="store_true". -h -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
