/// .arg(Arg::with_name("cfg")
/// .short("c")
/// .takes_value(true))
/// .get_matches(); // builds the instance of ArgMatches
///
/// // to get information about the "cfg" argument we created, such as the value supplied we use

/// if let Some(c) = matches.value_of("cfg") {

/// // The ArgMatches::value_of method returns an Option because the user may not have supplied

/// // use occurrences_of() which returns 0 if an argument isn't found at runtime, or the
/// // number of times that it occurred, if it was. To allow an argument to appear more than
/// // once, you must use the .multiple(true) method, otherwise it will only return 1 or 0.
