You can't do that really... once the option parsing is started you can't 
add new options in the middle of it and expect it to work... it would 
require parsing the whole thing over again.

The -F can go anywhere, so you don't have to do any parsing - It's only 
designed for filename arguments, to get around the stupid limits that 
Win32 has.
