Question: Is it possible to do a slice of commands (each with their arguments and flags)?

[tpihl]

Something like
<prog> update <entity> -v 1 print <entity> update <entity> -v 2

given than cmd update have entity as argument and v as flag, and print has entity as argument

Another (similar) question:

<copy-like-prog> csv text.csv json -

csv would be argument 1 command with filename as argument, json would be argument 2 command with filename - (stdout)

Sorry if stupid questions, really like the idea of kong but not sure i understand it enough

Hi, no this is not possible.

Ok

I think this is similar to #145. And I was also thinking of this. Not as slice of commands, but slice of structs. So for example, if I have struct like:

type Config struct {
  Servers []Server
}

type Server struct {
  Port int
  Host string
}

It would be nice to be able to run ./program --server --port 8080 --host host1.example.com --port 8000 --host host2.example.com or something similar. Not sure about syntax.

I wonder if supporting repeated groups of related flags would be sufficient, eg. in @mitar 's example above it would just be --host foo --port 8080 --host bar --port 9090 --host waz --port 9191. I don't know if that would be confusing or not.
