// Package mflag implements command-line flag parsing.
//
// Usage:
//
// Define flags using flag.String(), Bool(), Int(), etc.
//
// This declares an integer flag, -f or --flagname, stored in the pointer ip, with type *int.
// import "flag /github.com/docker/docker/pkg/mflag"
// var ip = flag.Int([]string{"f", "-flagname"}, 1234, "help message for flagname")
// If you like, you can bind the flag to a variable using the Var() functions.
// var flagvar int
// func init() {
// // -flaghidden will work, but will be hidden from the usage
// flag.IntVar(&flagvar, []string{"f", "#flaghidden", "-flagname"}, 1234, "help message for flagname")
// }
// Or you can create custom flags that satisfy the Value interface (with
// pointer receivers) and couple them to flag parsing by
// flag.Var(&flagVal, []string{"name"}, "help message for flagname")
// For such flags, the default value is just the initial value of the variable.
//
// You can also add "deprecated" flags, they are still usable, but are not shown
// in the usage and will display a warning when you try to use them. `#` before
// an option means this option is deprecated, if there is an following option
// without `#` ahead, then that's the replacement, if not, it will just be removed:
// var ip = flag.Int([]string{"#f", "#flagname", "-flagname"}, 1234, "help message for flagname")
// this will display: `Warning: '-f' is deprecated, it will be replaced by '--flagname' soon. See usage.` or
// this will display: `Warning: '-flagname' is deprecated, it will be replaced by '--flagname' soon. See usage.`
// var ip = flag.Int([]string{"f", "#flagname"}, 1234, "help message for flagname")
// will display: `Warning: '-flagname' is deprecated, it will be removed soon. See usage.`
// so you can only use `-f`.
//
// You can also group one letter flags, bif you declare
// var v = flag.Bool([]string{"v", "-verbose"}, false, "help message for verbose")
// var s = flag.Bool([]string{"s", "-slow"}, false, "help message for slow")
// you will be able to use the -vs or -sv
//
// After all flags are defined, call
// flag.Parse()
// to parse the command line into the defined flags.
//
// Flags may then be used directly. If you're using the flags themselves,
// they are all pointers; if you bind to variables, they're values.
// fmt.Println("ip has value ", *ip)
// fmt.Println("flagvar has value ", flagvar)
//
// After parsing, the arguments after the flag are available as the
// slice flag.Args() or individually as flag.Arg(i).
// The arguments are indexed from 0 through flag.NArg()-1.
//
// Command line flag syntax:
// -flag
// -flag=x
// -flag="x"
// -flag='x'
// -flag x // non-boolean flags only
// One or two minus signs may be used; they are equivalent.
// The last form is not permitted for boolean flags because the
// meaning of the command
// cmd -x *
// will change if there is a file called 0, false, etc. You must
// use the -flag=false form to turn off a boolean flag.
//
// Flag parsing stops just before the first non-flag argument
// ("-" is a non-flag argument) or after the terminator "--".
//
// Integer flags accept 1234, 0664, 0x1234 and may be negative.
// Boolean flags may be 1, 0, t, f, true, false, TRUE, FALSE, True, False.
// Duration flags accept any input valid for time.ParseDuration.
//
// The default set of command-line flags is controlled by
// top-level functions. The FlagSet type allows one to define
// independent sets of flags, such as to implement subcommands
// in a command-line interface. The methods of FlagSet are
// analogous to the top-level functions for the command-line
// flag set.
