Still dunno what you mean, but if you prepend ? and it passes through unknown<br>
arguments but keeps parsing. (And yes I made that work for echo -nex which has<br>
to _retroactively_ not recognize -n and -e when it hits the -x. :)<br>
<br>
Prepend ^ and it stops at the first non-option argument for xargs etc.<br>
