"""A sample application for cmd2 showing how to use argparse to
process command line arguments for your application.

Thanks to cmd2's built-in transcript testing capability, it also
serves as a test suite for argparse_example.py when used with the
exampleSession.txt transcript.

Running `python argparse_example.py -t exampleSession.txt` will run
all the commands in the transcript against argparse_example.py,
verifying that the output produced matches the transcript.
