Hm, none of my scripts/modules would get that complicated.
Everything I've done could treat command line arguments passed in as
class data. I can't imagine a script that would have different
arguments for different instances of the same class.
I'm sure there's a situation that would need it, but I've never
needed it for any of the scripts I've done.
I concede that needing different options for tweaking multiple instances
of the same class should be relatively rare. On the other hand, the
logic of my application(s) makes it very natural, so it can't be all
that rare. And maybe it would be done this way more often if it were
easier to code.
I thought I had some pretty hairy command line parsing going on, but
apparantly, you're dealing with a wookie.
Bingo.
