Arguments with backslash seem to be ignored about powerargs

If you add this attirbute to your class then it will work: [ArgStyle(ArgStyle.SlashColon)]

Then the program will expect name.exe /help for an argument with no value and name.exe /name:Adam for parameters that take values where "name" is the parameter and "Adam" is the value.

What you probably really want is the ability for the parser to automatically interpret the style at runtime. Maybe I can add that sometime - or maybe you can contribute :)

Hope this helps,
Adam

That's great.
However, if one chooses Powershell syntax, then /help should throw an error. If one chooses SlashColon syntax, then -help should throw an error.
That was my initial point.

Actually, I just finished the code to do the auto detection. I will check in soon. Do me a favor and try it out? All the tests still work, and I marked the ArgStyle enum and attribute as obsolete. They won't break anyone using them though. Are you building it or using the NuGet package?
