# 0.4.24 (2024-02-17 / 5a1e316)

## Added

- Bind the options map to `cli/*opts*`, for easy access.
- Show the default for a flag in the help text.
- Add a docstring to the main entry point (`dispatch`)
- Bind `*opts*` during flag handler execution

## Fixed

- Recognize `-` and `\\--foo` as positional args

## Changed

- When given both a `:default` and a `:handler` for a flag, call the handler
  with the default, rather than just assoc-ing it.
- When given a string `:default` and a `:parse` function for a flag, run the
  default value through the parse function, rather than using it directly. Using
  the unparsed string form for the default is preferable over for instance using
  a keyword, since it leads to better help text rendering.
- Improve and document the processing logic, especially when it comes to
  subcommand flags with handler functions.
