------------------------------------------------------------
There are 2 option,
Make nt to accept '-' by making "Options" ignore any -xxxx values (dont verify
if they are valid options), this can cause confusion on other commands.
Other option (Attached patch) is to support escape character for '-'
{code}
Example: ./apache-cassandra-1.2.0-beta1-SNAPSHOT/bin/nodetool move
