Another option that comes to mind is Thor by yehuda katz (took me ten minutes to recall the name!): http://yehudakatz.com/2008/05/12/by-thors-hammer/ otoh, there are some simple ones you could possible customize: i once studied and modified Choice (by Chris Wainstrath). I'd really like to know if you find something that helps you, or what you did eventually. |

Of everything, cmdparse is closest to what I want (by a significant margin,) but it's GPL (not LGPL :( ) so I'm not even sure I can use it in a non-GPL app. If cmdparse were under less-restrictive licensing I would have just hacked it up and released it already. I had already started doing so until I saw the license.
Right now, just writing a DSL is likely going to be my solution. I can bind an irb session to the monitor to keep scope from running away I think. Writing my own command parsing library just isn't interesting enough to me and I don't think I would ever finish it. This itch isn't quite that strong, at least not now.
What I really should do and am going to do later is look into irc clients written in ruby to see how they are doing it. They would probably run into this same problem.
