-- Lua command line option parser.
-- Interface based on Pythons optparse.
-- http://docs.python.org/lib/module-optparse.html
-- (c) 2008 David Manura, Licensed under the same terms as Lua (MIT license)
--
-- To be used like this:
-- t={usage="<some usage message>", version="<version string>"}
-- op=OptionParser(t)
-- op=add_option{"<opt>", action=<action>, dest=<dest>, help="<help message for this option>"}
--
-- with :
--   <opt> the option string to be used (can be anything, if one letter opt, then should be -x val, more letters: -xy=val )
--   <action> one of
--   - store: store in options as key, val
--   - store_true: stores key, true
--   - store_false: stores key, false
--   <dest> is the key under which the option is saved
--
-- options,args = op.parse_args()
--
-- now options is the table of options (key, val) and args is the table with non-option arguments.
-- You can use op.fail(message) for failing and op.print_help() for printing the usage as you like.
