Comment (by atagar):

 > Do you have a way to automatically generate --help output for the

 I consider automatic help to be a minus rather than a plus (I want full
 control over the
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/arm.git/blob/HEAD:/arm/settings.cfg help
 output]).

 True, positional arguments is one thing it definitely does not handle
 well. Stem and arm don't need that, but if you do then you might need to
 fall back on checking the argv for those (ick).
