Description

This adds a new ArgumentSource type as the projected value for @Argument, @Option, and @Flag types. This way, you can access the original string and location in the command-line arguments that produced a value.

struct Example: ParsableCommand {
    @Argument()
    var name: String

    @Option()
    var age: Int

    func run() {
        print("Your name is \(name) and your age is \(age).")
        if $name.source.first!.position < $age.source.first!.position {
            print("You gave your name before your age.")
        } else {
            print("You gave your age before your name.")
        }
    }
}
$ example --age 43 Blake
Your name is Blake and your age is 43.
You gave your age before your name.
