In looking at other help output, I noticed that they use two spaces, in
place of clap's 4, and it doesn't suffer from legibility. If it
doesn't make the output worse, let's go ahead and make it as dense so we
fit more content on the screen.
This is a part of #4132
I see them fulfilling two roles
- A form of bolding
- As a callback to their placeholder in usage
However, it is a bit of an unpolished look and no other CLI seems to do
it. This looks a bit more proefessional. We have colored help for
formatting and I think the sections relation to usage will be clear
enough.
This is the derive support for #3774 (see also #3775, #3777)
This combined with `value_parser` replaces `parser`. The main
frustration with this is that `ArgAction::Count` (the replacement for
`parse(from_occurrences)` must be a `u64`. We could come up with a
magic attribute that is meant to be the value parser's parsed type. We
could then use `TryFrom` to convert the parsed type to the user's type
to allow more. That is an exercise for the future. Alternatively, we
have #3792.
Prep for this included
- #3782
- #3783
- #3786
- #3789
- #3793
This just affects how it's rendered; rather than attempting to highlight
these blocks as a shell script, they'll get highlighted as console
output.
See the rendered versions for a better comparison.
