+  
+  has 'data' => (

+      cmd_flag  => 'somedata',
+      # tells MooseX::Getopt to also allow --moosedata,

+
 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
+This is a custom attribute metaclass which can be used to specify a 
+the specific command line flag to use instead of the default one 
+which L<MooseX::Getopt> will create for you. 
+
+This is certainly not the prettiest way to go about this, but for 
+now it works for those who might need such a feature.
+
 =head1 METHODS
 
+These methods are of little use to most users, they are used interally 
+within L<MooseX::Getopt>.
