The argument preprocessor can be used to make it insensitive to the relative order of optional and positional arguments, avoiding the need for changes like this: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=6cfec967ac5ad3894f6ce0e6c7289406bd10d480
<[Arfrever]> zmedico: I noticed that 'emerge ${package1} ${option} ${package2}' triggers error.
Maybe we can use parse_intermixed_args for python3.7 and later: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html#argparse.ArgumentParser.parse_intermixed_args
Also: [Tue 10:41 pm]<[Arfrever]> kveremitz: As long as you use all atoms at the beginning and all options at the end, it works :) . [Tue 10:42 pm]<zmedico> we've gotta fix that [Tue 10:42 pm]<kveremitz> ^ [Tue 10:42 pm]<kveremitz> its backwards!
