Generated code (using `--generate`):
```bash

# Command line interface (based on `spongecrab --generate`)
APP_NAME=$(basename "$0")
ABOUT="program description"
# Argument syntax: "<arg_name>;<help_text>;<default_value>;<short_name>"
# -o, -c, -C are mutually exclusive
CLI=(
    -p "arg1;Positional argument"
    -o "arg2;Optional positional argument;<default value>"
    -O "option;Optional argument;;o"
    -f "flag;Optional flag argument;;f"
    # -c "collect_any;Optional remaining positional arguments"
    # -C "collect_some;Required remaining positional arguments"
    -e "extra;Optional extra arguments after '--'"
)
CLI=$(spongecrab --name "$APP_NAME" --about "$ABOUT" "${CLI[@]}" -- "$@") || exit 1
eval "$CLI" || exit 1
