cli.d

/++
	Module for helping to make command line interface programs.


	You make an object with methods. Those methods take arguments and it reads them automatically for you. Or, you just make one function.

	./yourprogram args...

	or

	./yourprogram class_method_name args....

	Args go to:
		bool: --name or --name=true|false
		string/int/float/enum: --name=arg or --name arg
		int[]: --name=arg,arg,arg or --name=arg --name=arg that you can repeat
		string[] : remainder; the name is ignored, these are any args not already consumed by args
		FilePath and FilePath[]: not yet supported

		`--` always stops populating names and puts the remaining in the final string[] args param (if there is one)
		`--help` always

	Return values:
		int is the return value to the cli
		string is output, returns 0
		other types are converted to string except for CliResult, which lets you specify output, error, and code in one struct.
	Exceptions:
		are printed with fairly minimal info to the stderr, cause program to return 1 unless it has a code attached

	History:
		Added May 23, 2025

	You can pass a function to [runCli] and it will parse command line arguments
	into its arguments, then turn its return value (if present) into a cli return.

	If your function returns `CliResult`, you can return a value and some output in one object.

	Note that output and error are written to stdout and stderr, in addition to whatever the function
	did inside. It does NOT represent captured stuff, it is just a function return value.
