fn main() {
    // Args describe a possible valid argument which may be supplied by the user at runtime. There
    // are three different types of arguments (flags, options, and positional) as well as a fourth
    // special type of argument, called SubCommands (which will be discussed separately).
    //
    // Args are described in the same manner as Apps using the "builder pattern" with multiple
    // methods describing various settings for the individual arguments. Or by supplying a "usage"
    // string. Both methods have their pros and cons.
    //
    // Arguments can be added to applications in two manners, one at a time with the arg(), and
    // arg_from_usage() method, or multiple arguments at once via a Vec<Arg> inside the args() method,
    // or a single &str describing multiple Args (one per line) supplied to args_from_usage().
    //
    // There are various options which can be set for a given argument, some apply to any of the
    // three types of arguments, some only apply one or two of the types. *NOTE* if you set 
    // incompatible options on a single argument, clap will panic! at runtime. This is by design,
    // so that you know right away an error was made by the developer, not the end user. 
    //
    // # Help and Version
    // clap automatically generates a help and version flag for you, unless you specificy your
    // own. By default help uses "-h" and "--help", and version uses "-V" and "--version". You can
    // safely overide "-V" and "-h" to your own arguments, and "--help" and "--version" will stil
    // be automatically generated for you.
