Fire is an interesting project that's great for testing and hacking. But for crafting Python CLIs from scratch, I fail to understand why Argh[0] doesn't receive more attention.

My only frustrations are a missing default handler for --version, and that I can't use argument names colliding with builtins such as 'input'. All the flexibility of argparse without boilerplate.
