Crate List - Blessed.rs
https://github.com/google/argh is another minimal library for CLI argument parsing that could be in the list

Rust Web Framework Comparison
My go-to is argh[1], as it's more lightweight while still providing a nice derive-based API.

Immediately off the top of your head what is the best Rust CLI library.
It'll panic if the path contains non-UTF8-able bytes.

fncmd: Command line interface as a function.
Yes clap needs a lot of boilerplate that small programs don't always need, but if you're going to simplify it, I don't think having a bunch of arguments given to the main function is better than having an option struct as in argh. Such an option struct can be given to other functions from the main, can have dedicated consistency check or completion methods, etc.

Newbie frustration: can we KISS more?
Typically programs are configured through a config object. People like to use things like clap, structopt, or argh for passing in arguments through the CLI https://github.com/google/argh. You can also use the env! macro for embedding values in at compile time, or by going through the std::env::var infrastructure for runtime env vars.

Darkroom: A VCR contract testing tool built in Rust
Until the argh crate bumps their version I cannot updater the version on crates.io so the install command currently is: cargo install --git https://github.com/mkatychev/darkroom

Announcement: xflags, fast-to-compile proc macro for cli args
Ahh. The secondary reason I discounted Argh as "unsuitable for purpose" after "Doesn't support using OsString under the hood".
What are some alternatives?
When comparing darkroom and argh you can also consider the following projects:
tui-rs - Build terminal user interfaces and dashboards using Rust
clap-rs - A full featured, fast Command Line Argument Parser for Rust
tonic - A native gRPC client & server implementation with async/await support.
structopt - Parse command line arguments by defining a struct.
