"Docli" makes it sound like a generic documentation generator for CLIs.

IMO name should make it clear it is Go-only. Something like "GoastArgs: a Go library that parses a usage string/CLI args into an AST"

I am not a Go user so I can't speak about Go specifically, but I feel like including the name of the language in the library name is in general an anti-pattern, since generally when you look for a library to do something in language A, you aren't going to get results using language B anyway.

Thanks for the feedback umvi. I will be working on making it clear that Docli is a Go library.

But, for the love of God, please don't put the word "Go" in the name :D
