 This is an example of how to add and use the MSL command-line parser ( '''[[MSL Objects:OptionParser|OptionParser object]]''' ).   This tutorial will also discuss the common conventions used when using OptionParser to write MSL programs.  It is good to follow these conventions so that most MSL developers can easily read and help fix the option parsing code of any MSL program.

−	There are a couple of conventions for setting up a command-line parsing. One common one is to create a header file for each program (in this case example_option_parser.h), here we create an Options object which contains required and optional arguments, among other potential items. The rational for doing this, rather than placing directly in the cpp file is that it cleans up the program source file, so when people first read it they can get right to the main ~~source~~ function and start understanding the program, rather than understanding all the options first.	+	There are a couple of conventions for setting up a command-line parsing.
