// Once all App settings (including all arguments) have been set, you call get_matches() which

// parses the string provided by the user, and returns all the valid matches to the ones you
|
|
// specified.
|
|
//
|
|
// You can then query the matches struct to get information about how the user ran the program
|
|
// at startup.
|
|
//
|
|
// For this example, let's assume you created an App which accepts three arguments (plus two
|
|
// generated by clap), a flag to display debugging information triggered with "-d" or
|
|
// "--debug" as well as an option argument which specifies a custom configuration file to use
|
|
// triggered with "-c file" or "--config file" or "--config=file" and finally a positional
|
|
// argument which is the input file we want to work with, this will be the only required
|
|
// argument.
