Calling help on a builtin command dies verbosely.

[djerius]

Given ./foo:

#! /usr/bin/env perl

use App::Easer V2 => 'run';

exit run( {
        help => "Merge, evaluate, and other stuff",
        execute => sub  { return $_[0]->run_help },
        options => [ {
                getopt  => "verbose|v",
                help    => 'be talkative',
            },
            { getopt => 'help|h' },
        ],
        default_child => '-self',
        children => [ {
                aliases => [ 'merge' ],
                help    => 'merge rolled & derolled evt1 files',
                execute => sub {},
            } ]
    },
    $0, @ARGV
);

Running ./foo help help results in

Similar results obtain for help commands, help tree, but help merge is fine.

Thanks for reporting this as everything else. It will take some time and some refactoring, I guess.

Should be solved by 4fb97e5.

I felt like Andrew Harlan for a little time.

I'm not familiar with Andrew Harlan, but a web search indicates there's a whole range of them to choose from. In particular, which one were you feeling like?

[polettix]

This one 😅
