I want to format my command usage with docopt.
I found out that
<parameter>...
means that you can write a parameter multiple time. My problem is, that I have an argument that you can repeat multiple times but it has a limit. I don't want to write
<parameter> [<parameter> <parameter> <parameter> <parameter> <parameter> <parameter>]
with the correct count of the
<parameter>
tag. Is there a shorter way to specify that you can use the parameter mutliple times but the maximum is 15 times?

Short answer: No, you can't specify a maximum number of occurrences of a pattern in docopt. You can only specify a minimum. You will have to deal with that afterwards (or write X time).
