Description
Thanks for creating Fire. It's a fantastic argument parsing tool.
A minor request: I prefer my help strings to be printed to stdout instead of a console like less
. When the output is sent to a less
-like program you can't reference the script argument information when trying to type your next command.
The naive way to allow this option is adding a switch so the user can choose to send information console package or to stdout (code below).

to something like
if print_std:
print(text, file=out)
else:
console_io.More(
I don't see an elegant way to set print_std
in your source code since you are not accepting contributions to your console package and the Display
function is not a method of the Fire class. I don't see a straightforward way to have the user set this display option. Obviously, you know the code better than me so you may know a good way to add this option.
I am using fire version 0.2.1 and have seen this behavior with Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.
Thank you for your time!
