usage-lib 6.0.0

//! The named sections a `help_template` may place, and how one is filled in.
//!
//! A spec can say what order its help sections come in — `help_template "{{about}}{{usage}}…"`
//! — and nothing more than that. The template holds a closed vocabulary of *pre-rendered*
//! sections rather than the metadata behind them, which is what lets an interpreter, a compiled
//! parser and a generated Go program agree: they agree on where each section starts and ends,
//! not on a template language's semantics.
//!
//! The twins of this module are `usage_argv::help`'s `SECTIONS` and `Sections`, and Go's
//! `helpSections`. `conformance/tests/render.rs` is what says the three still agree.

/// describes an order rather than a page, so one template can serve a whole CLI.

/// wants, and the alternative is that every optional section needs its own template.
