Yeah, I really don't like Go's flag package, neither the API nor UI.
GNU-style options are just too good to give up, and all the other option
parsing packages I could find with better UIs still had poor APIs. So I
filled that gap with nullprogram.com/x/optparse. It's essentially a port
of my C library of the same name: https://github.com/skeeto/optparse

Thanks again for another great reply - and what a cool
reverse()function! I also noticed that your passphrase code imports your ownoptparselibrary. Theconfiguration structidea seems pretty straight forward.The
functionalversion it easier for me to follow. The chaining concept looks really useful. I am going to experiment with it. OTOH, theinterfaceversion seems syntactically cumbersome and is harder for me to follow. I think ease of use is going to win out for me vs potential flexibility.
