# Specification
`parse_args` parses arguments in the following way, assuming the following command line arguments (`sys.argv`):
`['/pargs/pargs.py', 'command', 'positional', '--flag', '--optional=value', 'test', '--output-file', 'filename', '-flg', 'name', 'name2']`
`parse_args` parses arguments in the following way, assuming the following command line arguments (`sys.argv`): `['/pargs/pargs.py', 'command', 'positional', '--flag', '--optional=value', 'test', '--output-file', 'filename', '-flg', 'name', 'name2']`
By calling `args, kwargs = parse_args()`, this would return the following list and dict:
```python
args = ['/pargs/pargs.py', 'command', 'positional'],
args = ['/pargs/pargs.py', 'command', 'positional']
kwargs = {
'flag': True,
'optional': ['value', 'test'],

- All other arguments are considered optional keyword arguments (`kwargs`)
- Optional arguments without leading hyphens are considered as values to preceding keyword arguments and saved as list
- Flags are recorded with the value `True` in the dict
- The leading up to two hyphens are stripped from options, all other hyphens are converted into underscores (`---test-this-` would become `_test_this_`)
