Content
https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html#customizing-file-parsing in the docs describes how to customize the @file reading. This particular extension handles several strings on a line, but that's not the limit of what you could do. You can also read a file before parsing and construct a custom `argv` list, as described in https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html#beyond-sys-argv
