"""
Command-line and common processing for Docutils front-end tools.

This module is provisional.
Major changes will happen with the switch from the deprecated
"optparse" module to "arparse".

Applications should use the high-level API provided by `docutils.core`.
See https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/api/runtime-settings.html.

Exports the following classes:

* `OptionParser`: Standard Docutils command-line processing.
  Deprecated. Will be replaced by an ArgumentParser.
* `Option`: Customized version of `optparse.Option`; validation support.
  Deprecated. Will be removed.
* `Values`: Runtime settings; objects are simple structs
  (``object.attribute``).  Supports cumulative list settings (attributes).
  Deprecated. Will be removed.
* `ConfigParser`: Standard Docutils config file processing.
  Provisional. Details will change.

Also exports the following functions:

Interface function:
   `get_default_settings()`.  New in 0.19.

Option callbacks:
   `store_multiple()`, `read_config_file()`. Deprecated.

Setting validators:
  `validate_encoding()`, `validate_encoding_error_handler()`,
  `validate_encoding_and_error_handler()`,
  `validate_boolean()`, `validate_ternary()`,
  `validate_nonnegative_int()`, `validate_threshold()`,
  `validate_colon_separated_string_list()`,
  `validate_comma_separated_list()`,
  `validate_url_trailing_slash()`,
  `validate_dependency_file()`,
  `validate_strip_class()`
  `validate_smartquotes_locales()`.

  Provisional.

Misc:
  `make_paths_absolute()`, `filter_settings_spec()`. Provisional.
