Research direction

Start with the @task(iterable=['pkgs']) declaration and how the task receives pkgs when invoked as apt-i one two. Review the task argument parsing and iterable behavior; done means the expected space-separated value or documented usage is clear.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

If I write a task for apt, for example $invoke apt-i one two

@task(iterable=['pkgs'])
def apt_i(c, pkgs):
	cmd = "sudo apt-get -y -qq install " +pkgs
	result = c.run(cmd)

how do I make it do spaces ?
