optimist

Description

Optimist is a commandline option parser for Ruby that just gets out of your way. One line of code per option is all you need to write. For that, you get a nice automatically-generated help page, robust option parsing, and sensible defaults for everything you don't specify.

Features

* Dirt-simple usage. * Single file. Throw it in lib/ if you don't want to make it a Rubygem dependency. * Sensible defaults. No tweaking necessary, much tweaking possible. * Support for long options, short options, subcommands, and automatic type validation and conversion. * Automatic help message generation, wrapped to current screen width.

Requirements

* A burning desire to write less code.
