Is it possible to use POSIX style options? When I tried the example and used -verbose instead of --verbose, I get a runtime error.

No. It's impossible for now. I find the style ugly.

Do you need it for backward-compatibility?

hotpxl commented 8 years ago

Not really. I like single dash style because I could abbreviate when unambiguous.
