        Some helpers for python's argparse.
        
        Currently, this package provides 3 HelpFormatter classes that you can extend and / or use with
        python's `argparse` module:
        
        ## Contents
        
        ### `WideHelpFormatter`
        
        HelpFormatter which tries to use a given amount of the terminal width.
        
        The maximum line length is determines by the class attribute `percentage_of_line_length`.
        This defaults to the full width (1.0). Override this class and set your own percentage.
        
        This uses ``shutil.get_terminal_size()`` to determine the line length.
        
        ### `ThreeQuarterWidthHelpFormatter`
        
        A `WideHelpFormatter` subclass with its `percentage_of_line_length` set to three quarters of the terminal line length.
        
        ### `ThreeQuarterWidthDefaultsHelpFormatter`
        
        A `ThreeQuarterWidthHelpFormatter` subclass which also derives from `argparse.ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter`. This means that in addition to using 3/4 of the terminal line length, it also prints the argument defaults in the help text.
        
        ## Usage
        
        Use these classes in the same way as any other `argparse.HelpFormatter` subclass while creating your argument parser:
        
            parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(formatter_class=<HelpFormatter>)
            parser.add_argument(...)
            ...
