Number of parsed tokens? #28

Description

Hi,

I'm using docopt to parse arguments for my program. This program then calls a library function that accepts argc, argv arguments to do its own argument parsing. And I'd like to be able to call ./my_program --my-arg --my-other-arg -- --lib-arg --other-lib-arg.

Basically, I'd need to be know how many tokens have been parsed by docopt, so that I can pass (argc - parsed_tokens) and [argv[0]] + argv[parsed_tokens:] to that lib (using a Python syntax to be clearer 😉).

Would it be possible to add something similar to docopt? If I'm the only one interested in such a feature and if I end up writing it, would you be interested in merging it? :)

Thanks!
