    Scan the command line arguments in *argv* according to the argument
    specifier *argSpecs*. Return **None** if there are no errors in
    the arguments, otherwise return an error string describing the error.

    This function must be called to initialise this module.

    title    -- The name of the program. This is used when returning
                error messages or help text.

    argv     -- A sequence containing the arguments given to the program.
                Normally **sys.argv**.

    argSpecs -- A sequence of argument specifiers.  Each specifier describes
                a valid command line argument and consists of 4 or 5 items:

                - The argument name (without a leading minus sign **-**).

                - A boolean value, true if the argument is mandatory.

                - This should be **Args.Bool** if the argument has no option.
                  Otherwise it should be a string describing the option
                  required for this argument. This is used when printing help.

                - A short string describing the argument.

                - The default value of the argument.  This should only be used
                  for non-mandatory arguments expecting an option.

                For example:
                  (
                    ('foreground', 0, 'colour',    'colour of text', 'black'),
                    ('geometry',   0, 'spec',      'geometry of initial window'),
                    ('server',     1, 'ompserver', 'ompserver to connect to'),
