python-argparse-manpage

Tool for automatic manual page building from a Python ArgumentParser object

This utility generates a manual page in an automatic way from an ArgumentParser object, so the manpage 1:1 corresponds to the automatically generated --help output. The manpage generator needs to known the location of the object, user can specify that by (a) the module name or corresponding python filename and (b) the object name or the function name which returns the object. There's a limited support for (deprecated) optparse objects, too.
