This should help you get started:
import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('-search', '-s', help='a word to search',
action='append', required=True)
parser.add_argument('-exclude', '-e', help='a word to exclude from search',
action='append')
parser.add_argument('input_file')
parser.add_argument('output_file')
args = parser.parse_args()
Assuming the user provided correct arguments, the args object will have
these attributes:
args.search - a list of words to search for.
args.exclude - a list of words to exclude. Can be None.
args.input_file - the input file name.
args.output_file - the output file name.
