"Framework for command line interfaces like CVS.  See class CmdFrameWork."


class CommandFrameWork:

    """Framework class for command line interfaces like CVS.

    The general command line structure is

            command [flags] subcommand [subflags] [argument] ...

    There's a class variable GlobalFlags which specifies the
    global flags options.  Subcommands are defined by defining
    methods named do_<subcommand>.  Flags for the subcommand are
    defined by defining class or instance variables named
    flags_<subcommand>.  If there's no command, method default()
    is called.  The __doc__ strings for the do_ methods are used
    for the usage message, printed after the general usage message
    which is the class variable UsageMessage.  The class variable
    PostUsageMessage is printed after all the do_ methods' __doc__
    strings.  The method's return value can be a suggested exit
    status.  [XXX Need to rewrite this to clarify it.]

    Common usage is to derive a class, instantiate it, and then call its
    run() method; by default this takes its arguments from sys.argv[1:].
