Inconsistencies in ambiguity resolution
While filing up #18, I found a small inconsistency in the way ambiguities are resolved. According to docopt.org:
Note, writing --input ARG (opposed to --input=ARG) is ambiguous, meaning it is not possible to tell whether ARG is option's argument or positional argument. In usage patterns this will be interpreted as option with argument only if option's description (covered below) for that option is provided. Otherwise it will be interpreted as separate option and positional argument.
So, if you take the following
Usage:
test --input ARG
and call it with --input foo you'd expect:
fromList [(LongOption "input",Present),(Argument "ARG",Value "foo")]
but you get
fromList [(LongOption "input",Value "foo")]
Even providing the correct option description doesn't get the intended behavior:
Usage:
test --input ARG
Options:
--input
$ test --input foo
fromList [(LongOption "input",Value "foo")]
Disambiguating it the other way gives you something even stranger:
Usage:
test --input ARG
Options:
--input ARG
$ test --input foo
fromList [(LongOption "input",Value "foo"),(Argument "ARG",NoValue)]
I've played a bit more with ambiguous options, there are similar problems with short options:
Usage:
foo -f ARG
$ foo -f bar
fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Value "bar")]
# Expected: fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Present),(Argument "ARG",Value "bar")]
Usage:
foo -f ARG
Options:
-f
$ foo -f bar
fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Value "bar")]
# Expected: fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Present),(Argument "ARG",Value "bar")]
$ foo
fromList [(ShortOption 'f',NoValue)]
# Expected: Usage: ...
Usage:
foo -f ARG
Options:
-f ARG
foo -f bar
fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Value "bar"),(Argument "ARG",NoValue)]
# Expected: fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Value "bar")]
with
Usage:
foo -fARG
Options:
-fARG
$ foo -fbar
Usage:
foo -fARG
Options:
-fARG
# Expected: fromList [(ShortOption 'f',Value "bar")]
$ foo
fromList [(ShortOption 'A',NotPresent),(ShortOption 'G',NotPresent),(ShortOption 'R',NotPresent),(ShortOption 'f',NotPresent)]
# Expected: Usage: ...
