Godot 4: Gut gives "Unrecognized options" when running on the command line

[aaronfranke]

I tried to get started with unit testing based on this wiki page and using the Godot 4 branch.

When I am cd'd into the folder with my Godot project, and I run this command:

godot --debug --script addons/gut/gut_cmdln.gd

I get this output:

 ---  Gut  ---
Unrecognized options:  ["--script", "addons/gut/gut_cmdln.gd"]

I tried running echo $? and it gives 1, so Gut is indicating an unclean exit.

If I remove those options it says are unrecognized, then Gut doesn't run, it just starts my app normally.

I believe you want -d and -s for debug and script. If you can get the following to print out the help, then you got it working.
godot -d -s --path $PWD addons/gut/gut_cmdln.gd -gh

When working with the godot_4 branch, be sure to read the GODOT_4_README.md. I try to keep that up to date with the development. It's still in a very fragile state.

@bitwes This is weird, -d is an alias for --debug and -s is an alias for --script, but when I use -d -s it works, while with --debug --script it does not work. Is this a bug in Gut? I would prefer to use the full words --debug --script in automated scripts for increased readability.

EDIT: --debug -s works, but -d --script does not work, so it's a problem with the script argument.

EDIT 2: Fixed #419

#419 fixed this. Thanks for the PR.
