This repository contains both a C++ and a python implementation of the
Google commandline flags module.  Documentation for the C++
implementation is in doc/.  Documentation for the python
implementation is at the top of gflags/flags.py.

See INSTALL for (generic) installation instructions for C++: basically
   ./configure && make && make install

To install the python module, run
   cd python; python ./setup.py install

When you install the python library, you also get a helper
application, gflags2man.py, installed into /usr/local/bin.  You can
run gflags2man.py to create an instant man page, with all the
commandline flags and their docs, for any C++ or python program you've
written using the gflags library.
