+command line options passed to programs. It is also able to print help
+messages detailing the options available for a command line tool.
+
+Commons CLI supports different types of options:
+
+@itemize
+@item POSIX like options (ie. tar -zxvf foo.tar.gz)
+@item GNU like long options (ie. du --human-readable --max-depth=1)
+@item Java like properties (ie. java -Djava.awt.headless=true Foo)
+@item Short options with value attached (ie. gcc -O2 foo.c)
+@item long options with single hyphen (ie. ant -projecthelp)
+@end itemize
