+"""
+This module implements a couple of utility classes to make writing
+lldb parsed commands more Pythonic.
+The way to use it is to make a class for you command that inherits from ParsedCommandBase.
+That will make an LLDBOVParser which you will use for your
+option definition, and to fetch option values for the current invocation
+of your command.  Access to the OV parser is through:
+
+ParsedCommandBase.get_parser()
+
+Next, implement setup_command_definition in your new command class, and call:
+
+  self.get_parser().add_option
+
+to add all your options.  The order doesn't matter for options, lldb will sort them
+alphabetically for you when it prints help.
+
+Similarly you can define the arguments with:
+
+  self.get_parser.add_argument
+
+at present, lldb doesn't do as much work as it should verifying arguments, it pretty
+much only checks that commands that take no arguments don't get passed arguments.
+
+Then implement the execute function for your command as:
+
+    def __call__(self, debugger, args_array, exe_ctx, result):
+
+The arguments will be in a python array as strings.  
+
+You can access the option values using varname you passed in when defining the option.  
+If you need to know whether a given option was set by the user or not, you can retrieve 
+the option definition array with:
+
+  self.get_options_definition()
+
+look up your element by varname and check the "_value_set" element.
+
+There are example commands in the lldb testsuite at:
+
+llvm-project/lldb/test/API/commands/command/script/add/test_commands.py
+
+FIXME: I should make a convenient wrapper for that.

I'm primarily going off of the documentation for `AttributeError` -- https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#AttributeError
Specifically it says that this gets raised when "an attribute reference (...) or assignment fails."
Note that you already do this on line 190. If we don't need to explicitly catch `AttributeError` here then we should be consistent and remove that one too.
