OK - general agreement. Wheee :-)
How about this:
def getopt_or_die(opts,
long_opts=[],
usage=None,
prog_name=None,
args=None,
exit_code = 1):
if usage is None, we build a very simple usage string from
opts/long_opts.
If prog_name is None, we use os.path.basename(sys.argv[0]). This is
printed just before the usage message.
If args is None, we use sys.argv[1:]
exit_code specifies the param to sys.exit() on invalid options.
I have based the ordering on my guess at the most likely to be used -
but maybe "prog_name" and "args" should be reversed? This should
_not_ be all-singing, all-dancing, as it is simple to use the existing
getopt.getopt() directly for more esoteric requirements; the old 80-20
rule applies here :-)
If the general agreement continues, I will then knock together an
implementation.
Mark.
