Examples

Default with flag parsing enabled.

command pos1 --flag1 pos2 --f<TAB>
# Value: --f
# Args: [pos1, pos2]

After encountering -- (dash) further flag parsing is disabled and Context.Args is reset to only contain dash arguments.

command pos1 --flag1 pos2 -- dash1 <TAB>
# Value:
# Args: [dash1]

With Command.DisableFlagParsing to true all arguments are handled as positional.

command pos1 --flag1 pos2 -- dash1 d<TAB>
# Value: d
# Args: [pos1, --flag1, pos2, --, dash1]

With SetInterspersed to false flag parsing is disabled after encountering the first positional argument.

command --flag1 flagArg1 pos1 -- dash1 --flag2 d<TAB>
# Value: d
# Args: [pos1, --, dash1, --flag2]

ActionMultiParts is a special case where Context.Parts is filled with the splitted Context.Value.

ActionValues("part1", "part2", "part3").UniqueList(",")
command pos1 part1,part2,p<TAB>
# Value: p
# Args: [pos1]
# Parts: [part1, part2]
