Args4j
-----
-----
args4j is a small Java class library that makes it easy to parse command line options/arguments in your CUI application.
Why should I use it?
See {{{http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohsuke/archive/2005/05/parsing_command.html}my quick intro}}.
* It makes command line parsing very easy by using annotations
* Generate usage text very easily
* Generate HTML/XML documentation listing all options
* Full localization support
* Designed to parse <<<javac>>> like options, as opposed to GNU-style (where <<<ls -lR>>> is considered to have two options <<<l>>> and <<<R>>>).
* Licensed under {{{http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php}the MIT license}}.
