[Nagiosplug-devel] Nagios::Plugin and Help change proposal

[Christoph Maser]

Hello

i would like to see N::P changed in a way that the help feature repeats
the argumentname itself before the help text. Right now one has to write
something like this:

$plugin->add_arg(
    spec => 'hello=s',
    help => "--hello\n   Hello string",
    required => 1,
  );


Wich can easly lead to typos. It would be nice if one could write

$plugin->add_arg(
    spec => 'hello=s',
    help => "Hello string",
    required => 1,
  );

and the help feature would automatically add "--$spec\n   "
