in reply to Re^5: Use Getopt::Long even if you don't think you need to
in thread Use Getopt::Long even if you don't think you need to
I am sorry, but I fail to find any cohesive argument at all in your reply. Before this reply, I thought I understood you to be arguing a particular thing (“command line interfaces cannot carry too much complexity so don’t try to coerce them into complex jobs”), but now I no longer feel I understand at all what you think people should or shouldn’t do nor for what reason or absence thereof.
If you want to argue any particular point, in the interest of clarity, please state it directly instead of leaving it as an exercise for the reader to infer from oblique references.
