Reviewing this, maybe a better method would be:
int readArgument(String[] args, int pos);
which returns the new position, the same as the one provided is not supported.
That way we can have a variable number of custom arguments.

Actually, in the current implementation, any reason all the message is buffered 
before being put to System.out ?
Any reason not to do System.out.println rather than StringBuffer.append( + 
line.separator) ?

Thanks for the review,
