| optparse doesn't allow for paragraph/narrative help text. This text would typically go below the option listing. There is currently no place to describe positional arguments, and this would be a simple way to allow for that. This could be provided as an extra keyword argument to OptionParser.__init__, included in the help in the function OptionParser.format_help. | ||

| Since optik is maintained separately from the core, this request should go there. http://sourceforge.net/projects/optik |
