Description: # Cement Framework
        
        Cement is an advanced CLI Application Framework for Python.  Its goal is to
        introduce a standard, and feature-full platform for both simple and complex
        command line applications as well as support rapid development needs without
        sacrificing quality.  Cement is flexible, and it's use cases span from the
        simplicity of a micro-framework to the complexity of a mega-framework.
        Whether it's a single file script, or a multi-tier application, Cement is the
        foundation you've been looking for.
        
        The first commit to Git was on Dec 4, 2009.  Since then, the framework has
        seen several iterations in design, and has continued to grow and improve
        since it's inception.  Cement is the most stable, and complete framework for
        command line and backend application development.

        Cement core features include (but are not limited to):
        
        - Core pieces of the framework are customizable via handlers/interfaces
        - Extension handler interface to easily extend framework functionality
        - Config handler supports parsing multiple config files into one config
        - Argument handler parses command line arguments and merges with config
        - Log handler supports console and file logging
        - Plugin handler provides an interface to easily extend your application
        - Hook support adds a bit of magic to apps and also ties into framework
        - Handler system connects implementation classes with Interfaces
        - Output handler interface renders return dictionaries to console
        - Cache handler interface adds caching support for improved performance
        - Controller handler supports sub-commands, and nested controllers
        - Zero external dependencies* (not including optional extensions)
        - 100% test coverage using `nose` and `coverage`
        - 100% PEP8 and style compliant using `flake8`
        - Extensive Sphinx documentation
        - Tested on Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5
        
        *Note that argparse is required as an external dependency for Python < 2.7
        and < 3.2.  Additionally, some optional extensions that are shipped with the
        mainline Cement sources do require external dependencies.  It is the
        responsibility of the application developer to include these dependencies
        along with their application, as Cement explicitly does not include them.*
