When using arguments such as a hex string that could be interpreted as a numeric value:
mycommand 23782e8821
In lib/util.js, when that argument gets passed to minimist in the parseArgs function, minimist interprets this as a number and returns Infinity.
This is really more of a problem with minimist, but since it no longer appears to be maintained, there should be a solution implemented within Vorpal. Although static types can be assigned for options, this is not so for args.
I will be submitting a PR shortly with a workaround, which tests arguments passed to minimist, and if they are Infinity, it will revert them to the raw value provided before parsing via minimist.
