Greetings,
I'm new to ruby (from Perl). I notice there are several command-line
options parsing modules. The two that stuck out were GetoptLong and
OptionsParser. GetoptLong suffers from being "the same old Getopt".
OptionsParser claims to be "more advanced and more ruby-like", but has
extremely poor documentation.
Are these the best two modules out there? Is there an emerging
"standard" module? (In Perl, Getopt::Long is by far the most commonly-used
module).
(I apologize if this is a FAQ; I read the FAQ and did a google scan of past
articles. Most of what I found was authors announcing their own options-
parsing modules).
Thanks in advance,
