perl-getopt-long-descriptive

Getopt::Long, but simpler and more powerful

Getopt::Long::Descriptive is yet another Getopt library. It's built atop Getopt::Long, and gets a lot of its features, but tries to avoid making you think about its huge array of options. It also provides usage (help) messages, data validation, and a few other useful features.

Installation

Install the latest version of perl-getopt-long-descriptive as follows:

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
