fn main() {
// Apps describe the top level application
//
// You create an App and set various options on that App using the "builder pattern"
//
// The options (version(), author(), about()) aren't mandatory, but recommended. There is
// another option, usage(), which is an exception to the rule. This should only be used when
// the default usage string automatically generated by clap doesn't suffice.
//
// You also set all the valid arguments your App should accept via the arg(), args(), arg_from_usage()
// and args_from_usage() (as well as subcommands via the subcommand() and subcommands() methods) which
// will be covered later.
//
// Once all options have been set, call .get_matches() in order to start the parsing and find all valid
// command line arguments that supplied by the user at runtime. The name given to new() will be displayed
// when the version or help flags are used.

// This example doesn't do much, but it *does* give automatic -h, --help, -V, and --version functionality ;)
// Continued program logic goes here...
