Not sure which tutorial you're using, but the refernce page:

Actually I am using 2.7.5, the tutorial found here: 
http://docs.python.org/2/howto/argparse.html#id1

but the problem is the same.
import argparse

def parse_my_args():
      global args
      parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Process some
integers.')
      parser.add_argument('integers', metavar='N', type=int,
nargs='+', help='an integer for the accumulator')
      parser.add_argument('--sum', dest='accumulate',
action='store_const', const=sum, default=max, help='sum the integers
(default: find the max)')
      args = parser.parse_args()


This is exactly what I needed to un-stick my thinking about this, thanks!
