 This module helps scripts to parse the command line arguments in ``sys.argv``.
 It supports the same conventions as the Unix :c:func:`!getopt` function (including
 the special meanings of arguments of the form '``-``' and '``--``').  Long
 options similar to those supported by GNU software may be used as well via an
 optional third argument.
