#### Alternate Names
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can set alternate (or short) names for flags by providing a comma-delimited list for the Name. e.g.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` go
|
||||||
|
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
|
||||||
|
cli.StringFlag{"lang, l", "english", "language for the greeting"},
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That flag can then be set with `--lang spanish` or `-l spanish`. Note that giving two different forms of the same flag in the same command invocation is an error.
