downloadcmd2-git-141d95194b30d959f6c21f4546100551c442b13d.tar.gz
Made a couple cleanup changes
1) cmd2 no longer imports make_option from optparse - test files and examples now import this directly - this helps emphasize that this old optparse methodology of adding options to commands is deprecated 2) All argparsers have been given custom names instead of just "argparser" - this helps with readability and maintainability, especially with IDE renaming and such
