Argument Clinic is a PyArgParse* preprocessor, AFAIU. Why not call the directory "pyargprep", "pyargparsers" or such? Or may be "aclinic-output"?

The fact that it emits PyArg_Parse*-using code is an implementation detail. It could easily change if we want since Argument Clinic abstracts out argument parsing entirely. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
