About

get-command-flags parses command line argument flags.

It also ignores positional arguments.

See the module get-command-args for positional argument getting.

In the browser

It parses the query string (window.location.search), and returns them as a substitute for command line flags.

This way a command line program using get-command-flags will still work in a browser <style> tag src.
