Oyster is a command-line input parser that doesn’t hate you. It provides  
a  
simple  
API that you use to write a spec for the user interface to your program,  
and  
it  
handles mapping the input to a hash for you. It supports both long and  
short  
option  
names, subcommands, and various types of input data.

Changes:

### 0.9.2 / 2009-06-19

- Use Curses to set the width of help output.
- Fix some formatting and layout bugs in help text.
