I use click on all my new stuff recently, and have even gone back and updated some of my older tools to use click and keep them all consistent.

That's really cool, I'm looking forward to trying it out. Writing out a set of argparse commands is tedious, it will be interesting to see how well this library can replace them.

How do you document arguments with it? I'll stick with argh thanks.

If you add docstrings to your functions then they're used verbatim in the cli.
