A good starting point for modules that compete with Optik can be found
in "User Interfaces" section of the Vaults of Parnassus:
http://www.vex.net/parnassus/apyllo.py/808292924
The contenders are:
Cmdline
Getargs
GetPotPython
Optik
Options
pypopt
...wow! I must confess, it didn't occur to me to check Parnassus before
writing Optik; I just arrogantly assumed that I would get it right.
It would be interesting to hear from the authors *and users* of the
above modules. If you're curious what Optik's users have said, see the
optik-users list archive:
