Joe,

This is achieved through using the 'getArgs' and 'getArgsList' methods defined
on CommandLine and also by creating an Options object for each part.  So for the
example you specify you need three Options e.g.

Options1 = -t and -u
Options2 = -x and -y
Options3 = -a, -b and -c

String[] args = new String[] { "-t", "-x", "-y", "value" };

CommandLine cmd = parser.parse( args, Options1 );

CommandLine cmd2 = null;
if( cmd.hasOption( "t" ) ) {
    cmd2 = parser.parse( cmd.getArgs(), Options2 );
}
else if( cmd.hasOption( "-u" ) ) {
    cmd2 = parser.parse( cmd.getArgs(), Options3 );
}

So I am marking this as not being a bug.  If you have any other comments on this
then please add them to this bug.

Cheers,
-John K
