A minimalist command-line argument parsing library

Usage

cargo add appentry

Hello World:

#[appentry::appentry]
fn add(x: i32, y: i32) -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    println!("{}", x + y);
    Ok(())
}

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    appentry::dispatch(true)?;
    Ok(())
}

/*
$ myapp --help
Usage: appentry.exe [Options]
Options:
    -x|--x <i32>
    -y|--y <i32>

$ myapp -x 1 -y 2
