Preprocess the sys.args before calling optparse.
Simply search sys.args for the string "start" and the string "stop", and
note whichever comes first. Then use slice operators to peel the extra
arguments off of sys.args.
Thanks, i implemented your logic. I thought there was a Optparse
feature to handle this.
There is:
parser.allow_interspersed_args = False
This means that as soon as the parser hits start|stop, it assumes that
everything following it is an argument and not an option that it needs to try to
parse.
