DRY the CLI

Open dfellis opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Based on the discussion with @nrabinowitz in the prior CLI PR. This PR removes duplicate help text and argument types, and turns the arg length trick (and all of the "show subcommand-specific help text" code) into a macro, deleting about twice as much text as it adds.

PS. DRY the CLI does not rhyme.
