%(prog)s in version string is not being replaced

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

>>> import argparse
>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', version='%(prog)s 3.5')
>>> parser.parse_args(['-v'])
%(prog)s 3.5

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to see "PROG 3.5", and what I see is "%(prog)s 3.5" (without the 
quotes).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Using version 1.0.1 on Active Python 2.6.2.2 on Windows Vista.  Problem 
also seems to happen using Jython 2.5.1 on Windows Vista.

Please provide any additional information below.

Yeah, I caught this bug in r68. Could you confirm its gone in trunk?

It does appear that this is no longer a problem in the trunk version.  Are 
there plans 
to update the installation packages with the latest trunk version?

I need to actually make a release with the trunk version, and then I'll upload 
new
packages. I'm not sure how soon I'll be making a release though. I'll try to do 
one
in the next month or two.
