Yes, this is a normal trick that's needed: there are often cases of "don't do this if user asked for help" (or "... asked for clean"). Described here, which you...

also noticed from your code snip here - perhaps this is already done in your more real code - that you usually need to call `GenerateHelpText` to get the help...

So years later... been staring at `Variables`, and I'm now of the opinion that there's a mis-implementation. The `ListVariable` converter effectively serve two purposes and there's no separate validator (it's...

Updated: ignore this, I had missed that the stored value is passed through `env.subst()` before the validator is called, so the validator gets a string. ~~Implementation question: splitting the validation...

Came across this again closing down old browser tabs ;-) This in concept is similar to some Fortran stuff I've been wrestling with. A lot of scanners work on the...
