Sorry to cross-post this, as I just posted it on django-users, 
but it's perhaps a little problem with the django documentation here

I have a working project template that I can use with the new "--template" 
option of the startproject management command
I wanted to pass more variables in the template_context, and the doc [1] 
says  :

The template 
context<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/templates/api/#django.template.Context>used
 is: 

   - *Any option passed to the startproject command*
   - project_name -- the project name as passed to the command
   - project_directory -- the full path of the newly created project
   - secret_key -- a random key for the 
SECRET_KEY<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/settings/#std:setting-SECRET_KEY>setting

But when I type for example  :
django-admin.py startproject --template=/home/admin/tmpl/ --myvar="hey" 
mynewprojectname
I get : django-admin.py: error: no such option: --myvar

TemplateCommand(BaseCommand) uses *optparse*, and from what I read on this 
module, it's normal that optparse refuses options that were not defined 
before ?
Am I missing a specific syntax to use here or does the documentation is 
wrong ?

Thanks for your help
