xo: the text editor without frills

==================================

You might be looking for help, but this is all I can do::

    usage: xo [-h] path

    exofrills: your text has been edited...but you are still hungry.

    positional arguments:

      path        path to file, may include colon separated line and col numbers,

                  eg 'path/to/xo.py:10:42'

    optional arguments:

      -h, --help  show this help message and exit
