[issue23651] Typo in argparse allow_abrev

2015-03-12 Thread Nathan West 

New submission from Nathan West:

The documentation for the new argparse feature allow_abrev contains a typo:

 parser.add_argument('--foobar', action='store_true')
 parser.add_argument('--foonley', action='store_false')
 parser.parse_args([--foon])
usage: PROG [-h] [--foobar] [--foonley]
PROG: error: unrecognized arguments: --foon

The --foon should be quoted:

 parser.parse_args(['--foon'])
