class CommandFrameWork:
"""Framework class for command line interfaces like CVS.
The general command line structure is
command [flags] subcommand [subflags] [argument] ...
There's a class variable GlobalFlags which specifies the
global flags options. Subcommands are defined by defining
methods named do_<subcommand>. Flags for the subcommand are
defined by defining class or instance variables named
flags_<subcommand>. If there's no command, method default()
is called. The __doc__ strings for the do_ methods are used
for the usage message, printed after the general usage message
which is the class variable UsageMessage. The class variable
PostUsageMessage is printed after all the do_ methods' __doc__
strings. The method's return value can be a suggested exit
status. [XXX Need to rewrite this to clarify it.]
Common usage is to derive a class, instantiate it, and then call its
run() method; by default this takes its arguments from sys.argv[1:].
