Description-en: replacement for argparse with config files and environment variables (Python 2)
Applications with more than a handful of user-settable options are best
configured through a combination of command line args, config files,
hard-coded defaults, and in some cases, environment variables.
.
Python’s command line parsing modules such as argparse have very limited
support for config files and environment variables, so this module extends
argparse to add these features.
.
This is the Python 2 module.
