Thanks for posting this. I was quickly up and runing using your instructions. One thing I might clarify for others is that you need to put the colon after the switch letter in the optstring for any argument that needs a value...not just those that require the argument to be passed. I thought you meant the latter and omitted the colon for arguments that I wanted to be treated as option rather than required. That didn't work. They're made optional by defaulting them to something and not throwing an error if they're not passed or if they're blank., rather than by omitting the colon. The colon is necessary for any argument that is not just a flag. You rock! Thanks for posting this. I was quickly up and runing using your instructions.

I also believe that this kind of discussion is important, and for a conference with more than 8k people attending, there's room for everybody.
