- Add pflag dependency for POSIX/GNU-style command line parsing
- Replace Go standard flag package with pflag for better UX
- Implement long options with double dashes (--config, --max-messages, --help)
- Add short option aliases with single dashes (-c, -m, -h)
- Update help message with proper formatting and application description
- Update all documentation to reflect new flag syntax
- Update test scripts to use new command line format
GNU-style options provide better usability:
- Long descriptive options with --flag-name format
- Short single-character aliases for common options
- Standard help flag behavior with --help/-h
- Compatible with shell completion and standard conventions
Command line interface now supports:
- --config/-c FILE: Path to configuration file
- --max-messages/-m N: Message processing limit per mailbox
- --help/-h: Show help message and exit
All existing functionality preserved with improved command line experience.
