* Upgrade optparse module and tests to Optik 1.5a1:Greg Ward2004-07-311-195/+353
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * add expansion of default values in help text: the string "%default" in an option's help string is expanded to str() of that option's default value, or "none" if no default value. * bug #955889: option default values that happen to be strings are now processed in the same way as values from the command line; this allows generation of nicer help when using custom types. Can be disabled with parser.set_process_default_values(False). * bug #960515: don't crash when generating help for callback options that specify 'type', but not 'dest' or 'metavar'. * feature #815264: change the default help format for short options that take an argument from e.g. "-oARG" to "-o ARG"; add set_short_opt_delimiter() and set_long_opt_delimiter() methods to HelpFormatter to allow (slight) customization of the formatting. * patch #736940: internationalize Optik: all built-in user- targeted literal strings are passed through gettext.gettext(). (If you want translations (.po files), they're not included with Python -- you'll find them in the Optik source distribution from http://optik.sourceforge.net/ .) * bug #878453: respect $COLUMNS environment variable for wrapping help output. * feature #988122: expand "%prog" in the 'description' passed to OptionParser, just like in the 'usage' and 'version' strings. (This is *not* done in the 'description' passed to OptionGroup.)
* Fix support for the "prog" keyword to the OptionParser constructor, as wellFred Drake2004-04-011-3/+8

* Update to Optik 1.4.1; here are the relevant bits of the change log:Greg Ward2003-04-211-49/+48
| | | | | | | | | | * Fixed some long-hidden bugs revealed by the new PyUnit-based test suite (thanks to Johannes Gijsbers the new test suite, improved tests that caught the bugs, and the bug fixes). * Make store_true/store_false store True/False rather than 1/0. Details available in Optik's CVS repository.

recent version from Greg's CVS. I've changed the module docstring, added a copyright notice, and renamed OptikError to OptParseError. Still to do are documentation and unit tests.
