+
+ The general command line structure is
+
+ command [flags] subcommand [subflags] [argument] ...
+
+ There's a class variable GlobalFlags which specifies the
+ global flags options. Subcommands are defined by defining
+ methods named do_<subcommand>. Flags for the subcommand are
+ defined by defining class or instance variables named
+ flags_<subcommand>. If there's no command, method default()
+ is called. The __doc__ strings for the do_ methods are used
+ for the usage message, printed after the general usage message
+ which is the class variable UsageMessage. The class variable
+ PostUsageMessage is printed after all the do_ methods' __doc__
+ strings. The method's return value can be a suggested exit
+ status. [XXX Need to rewrite this to clarify it.]
+
+ Common usage is to derive a class, instantiate it, and then call its
+ run() method; by default this takes its arguments from sys.argv[1:].
