% symbol causes expception when parsing help text #5

@evidex

Description

@evidex

Help fields containing a % symbol cause an exception when using the -h or --help flags to parse help text.

% is obviously a special symbol used by the parser for some reason, however there seems to be no documentation of this, or any other reserved symbols.

Python 2.7.3
