"""'Arguments' for testr.

This is a small typed arguments concept - which is perhaps obsoleted by
argparse in Python 2.7, but for testrepository is an extension used with
optparse.

The code in this module contains the AbstractArgument base class. Individual
argument types are present in e.g. testrepository.arguments.string.

See testrepository.commands.Command for usage of Arguments.

Plugins and extensions wanting to add argument types should either define them
internally or install into testrepository.arguments as somename (perhaps by
extending the testrepository.arguments __path__ to include a directory
containing their argument types - no __init__ is needed in that directory.)
