/**
* class Action
*
* Base class for all actions
* Do not call in your code, use this class only for inherits your own action
*
* Information about how to convert command line strings to Javascript objects.
* Action objects are used by an ArgumentParser to represent the information
* needed to parse a single argument from one or more strings from the command
* line. The keyword arguments to the Action constructor are also all attributes
* of Action instances.
*
* ##### Allowed keywords:
*
* - `store`
* - `storeConstant`
* - `storeTrue`
* - `storeFalse`
* - `append`
* - `appendConstant`
* - `count`
* - `help`
* - `version`
*
* Information about action options see [[Action.new]]
*
* See also [original guide](http://docs.python.org/dev/library/argparse.html#action)

/**
* new Action(options)
*
* Base class for all actions. Used only for inherits
*
*
* ##### Options:
*
* - `optionStrings` A list of command-line option strings for the action.
* - `dest` Attribute to hold the created object(s)
* - `nargs` The number of command-line arguments that should be consumed.
* By default, one argument will be consumed and a single value will be
* produced.
* - `constant` Default value for an action with no value.
* - `defaultValue` The value to be produced if the option is not specified.
* - `type` Cast to 'string'|'int'|'float'|'complex'|function (string). If
* None, 'string'.
* - `choices` The choices available.
* - `required` True if the action must always be specified at the command
* line.
* - `help` The help describing the argument.
* - `metavar` The name to be used for the option's argument with the help
* string. If None, the 'dest' value will be used as the name.
*
* ##### nargs supported values:
*
* - `N` (an integer) consumes N arguments (and produces a list)
* - `?` consumes zero or one arguments
* - `*` consumes zero or more arguments (and produces a list)
* - `+` consumes one or more arguments (and produces a list)
*
* Note: that the difference between the default and nargs=1 is that with the
* default, a single value will be produced, while with nargs=1, a list
* containing a single value will be produced.
