      • if the Option can have an argument value and there are remaining characters in the token then add the remaining characters as a token to the list of processed tokens.
      • if an Option does NOT exist AND stopAtNonOption IS set then add the special token "--" followed by the remaining characters and also the remaining tokens directly to the processed tokens list.
      • if an Option does NOT exist AND stopAtNonOption IS NOT set then add that character prepended with "-".
