		This library provides an easy way to define command line parsers. Most users
		will want to use the "System.Console.CmdArgs.Implicit" module, whose
		documentation contains an example.
		
		* "System.Console.CmdArgs.Explicit" provides a way to write command line
		parsers for both single mode programs (most programs) and multiple
		mode programs (e.g. darcs or cabal). Parsers are defined by constructing
		a data structure.
		
		* "System.Console.CmdArgs.Implicit" provides a way to concisely define
		command line parsers, up to three times shorter than getopt. These parsers
		are translated into the Explicit data type.
		
		* "System.Console.CmdArgs.GetOpt" provides a wrapper allowing compatiblity
		with existing getopt parsers, mapping to the Explicit data type.
		
		For a general reference on what command line flags are commonly used,
		see &lt;http://www.faqs.org/docs/artu/ch10s05.html&gt;.
