Getopt::Fancy - Object approach to handling command line options, focusing on end user happiness

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    my $opts = Getopt::Fancy->new();
    $opts->add("db", GT   => "=s",
                     EX   => "<db_name>",
                     DESC => "The database to dump. Leave unset for all databases.",
                     DEF  => "teen_titans",
                     ALLOWED => ["--all-databases", "mydb", "teen_titans"],
                     REGEX => '^[a-zA-Z0-9\_]+$',
                     REQ  => 0,
                     SECTION => "Required DB Params");

    $opts->add("check_args", DESC => "Just print all the options", SECTION => "Misc Params");

    # Allow user to specify list of options s/he needs help with
    $opts->add("help", GT => ":s@", EX => "[option1,option2..]", 
               DESC => "Give option names and it'll print the help for just those options, otherwise all.", 
               SECTION=>"Misc Params", COMMAS=>1);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<Getopt::Fancy> Allows command line options to be all in one place in your script
including default values, allowed values, user-friendly descriptions,
required flags and pattern matching requirements. Ofttimes script writers skimp
on the usage information or have out-dated help information. This modules helps
script writers to be better citizens.

This module uses Getopt::Long, so the same rules apply.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item C<my $opts = GetOpt::Fancy-E<gt>new()>

Construct a new object.

=item C<$opts-E<gt>add($opt_name, %config)>

C<add()> is where you specify the command line options you want to accept
and the configuration for each.

    $opts->add("hostname", GT   => "=s",
                           EX   => "<my_hostname>",
                           DESC => "The hostname to connect to to do whatever.",
                           DEF  => "batcomputer",
                           REGEX => '^[a-zA-Z0-9\_\-\.]+$',
                           SECTION => "Connection Params");

The possible config values are ...

=over 4

=item *

GT - The Getopts type specification (=i, :s, =s@, etc)

=item *

DEF - The default value for this option if the user running your script doesn't give one. If the option is multivalued,
pass in a reference to an array of values.

=item *

REQ - A flag (1 or 0) denoting if this option is required. (You can just leave this out if it's 0)

=item *

REGEX - A regular expression the value must match.

=item *

ALLOWED - A reference to an array of allowed values. This allows you to restrict the set.

=item *

COMMAS - A flag (1 or 0) denoting if this multivalued option should allow comma separated values.
This only applies to options that have a "@" in their GT (=s@, etc). If this is set, the user of your script
can specify multiple values by just doing something like: -colors red,green,blue

=item *

EX - A human readable example value for the user of your script that is printed during -help

=item *

DESC - A human readable description of the option for the user of your script that is printed during -help

=item *

SECTION - A human readable section header  for the user of your script that is printed during -help. This allows
you to group similar options together

=back

=item C<$opts-E<gt>get_options()>

Call this when it's time to read and parse the command line options. It will return a human readable string describing to the
end user what they did wrong. If all is well, returns undef.

After you call this, you can then treat $opts as a hash ref: $opts->{my_option}

=item C<$opts-E<gt>get_usage([optional,list,of,options])>

Returns a pretty, printable string of all the possible options, example values, descriptions, allowed values and default
values, grouped by SECTION. If a reference to an array of option names is passed in, only usage information for those
options is included.

=item C<$opts-E<gt>get_values()>

Returns a pretty, printable string of all the options and currently set values.

The object pretends to be a hash ref, so if you want values themselves, just do:

    $opts->{my_option}

=item C<$opts-E<gt>get_error()>

Returns the human readable error string describing the error during the options handling. This
string is also returned after C<get_options>
