Althought the article has Perl as a focus, I thought that some of the
general points made might be of interest to the Python community. It
would certainly be interesting to put together an analogous version of
this article that centers on Python.

He spends so much space on "Create Consistent Command-Line Interfaces," a section that, in Python, could be replaced with a simple "Use optparse."
