argv_source - if the values_source_list contains a commandline

options_banned_from_help - a list of strings that will censor the
output of help to prevent specified

app_name - assigns a name to the app. This is used in help output
and as a default basename for config files.
app_version - assigns a version for the app used help output.
app_description - assigns a description for the app to be used in
the help output.
config_pathname - a hard coded path to the directory of or the full
