Port from optparse to argparse to ?

[Stuart Axon]

Hi All :)
   Does anyone have any objection to me moving shoebot to argparse?
It would mean we'd have a minimum of python 2.7.x, I think that's OK though as it's the last of the 2.7 line... it should also make porting to 3.x easier.

Anyway - my real motivation is that it looks like it'll be easier to pass parameters to shoebot scripts this way + making it easier to run run sphinx-build within shoebot - getting us -docs with the same namespace as a running shoebot.


Great to see all the recent activity on github, btw.

Sure! I just added the 2.7 requirement to the README file.

Command-line parameters + var() would be super wonderful.

This was more about being able to use sbot instead of python - so munging out the shoebot specific parameters like -w so things like sphinx will behave - I should really add vars from the commandline though, as it is a useful feature.
