Welcome to the M_CLI wiki! The main goal of M_CLI is to make a production-quality command line parser that supports common conventions that is easy enough to use that new users can successfully use it within a few minutes. This lowers the bar required for adding such basic functionality to a program to as simple a method as possible only using the current Fortran standard. I hope it is especially usable by programmers new to Fortran.

Since there is some latitude in how NAMELIST is implemented I am particularly interested in hearing what programming environments this module works in and what errors there are with various compilers, if any.

So far, I only have tested with GNU/gfortran 8.0.3.

I appreciate any feedback.
