Description

CommandFormat currently takes an array and offset for parsing and returns a list of arguments. It'd be much more convenient to have it process a list too. It would also be nice to differentiate between too few and too many args instead of the generic "Illegal number of arguments". Finally, CommandFormat is completely devoid of tests.
