Description

GLI is the best way to make a “command-suite” command-line application, e.g. one like git (for the best way to make a simpler command-line application, check out methadone).

GLI allows you to make a polished, easy-to-maintain command-line application without a lot of syntax, but without restricting you in any way from the power of OptionParser.
