* Use state objects instead of tons of locals in the main function. * Use actions for storing arguments into result table. Actions are now called at the end of each invocation, with result table, target index, arguments and overwrite flag as arguments. * Remove command actions. * Improve error messages, refer to options by the last used alias instead of the main name. TODO: * Improve error messages further ("argument 'foo' is required" -> "missing argument 'foo'", etc.). * Add actions for positional arguments. * Add actions for commands (should be called with final results after parsing is over, in "innermost first" order). * Allow referring to built-in actions by strings a-la Python (e.g. action = "store_false"). * Allow setting initial value to be stored at target index for each option (perhaps use default value for that). * Add more tests, particularly for actions.
