Clon is a library for command-line options management. It is intended to ease | ||
the creation of standalone Common Lisp applications by providing a powerful | ||
and uniform command-line options interface. The most important features of | ||
Clon are the following. | ||
|
||
- From the application programmer's point of view: centralized command-line | ||
options specification and management, including automatic generation of help | ||
strings, conversion from command-line / defaults / fallbacks / environment | ||
variables to application-level option values, global or on-demand option | ||
retrieval, and extensibility (the programmer can define his own option | ||
types). | ||
|
||
- From the application user's point of view: uniform command-line option | ||
syntax across all Clon applications, customization of the help strings | ||
layout (with optional ISO6429 coloring on terminals that support it), | ||
automatic completion of abbreviated option names and short/long/pack syntax. |
