152 Abstract base class for formatting option help. OptionParser
153 instances should use one of the HelpFormatter subclasses for
154 formatting help; by default IndentedHelpFormatter is used.

158 the controlling OptionParser instance
159 indent_increment : int
160 the number of columns to indent per nesting level
161 max_help_position : int
162 the maximum starting column for option help text
164 the calculated starting column for option help text;
165 initially the same as the maximum
167 total number of columns for output (pass None to constructor for
168 this value to be taken from the $COLUMNS environment variable)

172 current indentation level (in columns)
174 number of columns available for option help text (calculated)
176 text to replace with each option's default value, "%default"
177 by default. Set to false value to disable default value expansion.

180 the syntax of that option, e.g. "-h, --help" or

183 format string controlling how short options with values are
184 printed in help text. Must be either "%s%s" ("-fFILE") or
185 "%s %s" ("-f FILE"), because those are the two syntaxes that
188 similar but for long options; must be either "%s %s" ("--file FILE")
189 or "%s=%s" ("--file=FILE").

1118 Instance attributes:
1120 a usage string for your program. Before it is displayed
1121 to the user, "%prog" will be expanded to the name of
1122 your program (self.prog or os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])).
1124 the name of the current program (to override
1125 os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])).
1127 paragraph of help text to print after option help
1129 option_groups : [OptionGroup]
1130 list of option groups in this parser (option groups are
1131 irrelevant for parsing the command-line, but very useful
1132 for generating help)
1134 allow_interspersed_args : bool = true
1135 if true, positional arguments may be interspersed with options.
1136 Assuming -a and -b each take a single argument, the command-line
1137 -ablah foo bar -bboo baz
1138 will be interpreted the same as
1139 -ablah -bboo -- foo bar baz
1140 If this flag were false, that command line would be interpreted as
1141 -ablah -- foo bar -bboo baz
1142 -- ie. we stop processing options as soon as we see the first
1143 non-option argument. (This is the tradition followed by
1144 Python's getopt module, Perl's Getopt::Std, and other argument-
1145 parsing libraries, but it is generally annoying to users.)
1147 process_default_values : bool = true
1148 if true, option default values are processed similarly to option
1149 values from the command line: that is, they are passed to the
1150 type-checking function for the option's type (as long as the
1151 default value is a string). (This really only matters if you
1152 have defined custom types; see SF bug #955889.) Set it to false
1153 to restore the behaviour of Optik 1.4.1 and earlier.
1156 the argument list currently being parsed. Only set when
1157 parse_args() is active, and continually trimmed down as
1158 we consume arguments. Mainly there for the benefit of
1161 the list of leftover arguments that we have skipped while
1162 parsing options. If allow_interspersed_args is false, this
1163 list is always empty.
1165 the set of option values currently being accumulated. Only
1166 set when parse_args() is active. Also mainly for callbacks.
1168 Because of the 'rargs', 'largs', and 'values' attributes,
1169 OptionParser is not thread-safe. If, for some perverse reason, you
1170 need to parse command-line arguments simultaneously in different
1171 threads, use different OptionParser instances.
