Looking for UX feedback for my encryption/decryption command line utility.
I made an encryption/decryption tool for learning purposes and was wondering if you guys had feedback on how I could improve this from a user-experience standpoint: Things like CLI argument structure, argument convention, help text, and things of that nature. I'm a noob when it comes to making command-line utilities and am itching to learn about best practices and how best to make my tools feel ergonomic. Any input is appreciated! Thank you.

Clipboard - the missing cut, copy and paste system for the terminal
I like the idea of docopt but looks like it is no longer maintained unfortunately: https://github.com/docopt/docopt/issues/494. However others are carrying it forward at https://github.com/jazzband/docopt-ng

Docopt-ng is a up-to-date fork of Docopt.

To that guy who told me about argparse
Note, the python source of docopt seems to have been effectively abandoned, so a better bet these days might be docopt-ng from the jazzband coop

Docopt
Just FYI, the docopt package isn't updated anymore and the maintainer doesn't answer any inquiries. There are some annoying bugs one runs into when using the official docopt package. So I recommend using docopt-ng instead: https://github.com/jazzband/docopt-ng
What are some alternatives?
