+ \subsection console_args_convert Handling special argument types by conversion
+
+ Sometimes an argument type is best handled by just pretending it to be of some other type. The
+ basic idea is, to us \c boost::function to convert the real argument type to some different type
+
+ \code
+ unsigned char fun4(unsigned char value)
+ {
+ return value;
+ }
+
+ senf::console::root()
+ .add("test8", boost::function<unsigned (unsigned)>(&fun4));
+ \endcode
+
+ Here, the type signature specified via \c boost::function is different from the real type
+ signature but is compatible. \c boost::function automatically handles the conversion
+ process. Since the console library now sees the argument and return value of type \c unsigned,
+ the values will be parsed correctly as numeric values.
+
+ The same idea can be used to support custom parsing rules. See senf::console::FlagCollection.

\subsection console_args_custom Extending the library to support additional types
To support or customize parsing/formatting of other types, they need to be registered. In it's
