So over here it works as you expected -- perhaps you need a newer
version of
docopt? I have
(docopt)$ python -c 'import docopt; print docopt.__version__'
0.6.1
Can you tell me please on which system you ran this?
I am running Linux (Ubuntu12.04) and a friend who also runs Linux (I've
yet to find out which flavour) got the same result as did I, so I am
beginning to think it might be OS dependent.
thks.
