Is there any way I can tell argparse to not eat quotation marks?
For example, When I give an argument with quotes, argparse only takes what’s inside of the quotes as the argument. I want to capture the quotation marks as well (without having to escape them on the command line.)
pbsnodes -x | xmlparse -t "interactive-00"
produces
interactive-00
I want
"interactive-00"
