There seems to be something wrong with the summary. Did you forget to leave the second line empty?

Many users will prefer to use the packages @code{optparse} or @code{argparse} which add extra features like automatically generated help options and usage texts, support for default values, positional argument support, etc.” ~~ Ricardo
