Hey charlesg,
you might want to experiment with the gb.option and the GetOptions class
here's an example to get you started
DIM opt AS NEW GetOptions("la:b:c:")
IF opt["?"] = 1
PRINT "error parsing the arguments"
ENDIF
IF opt["l"] = 1
PRINT "found option l"
ENDIF
IF opt["a"] <> 1 AND opt["a"] <> 0
PRINT opt["a"]
ENDIF
IF opt["b"] <> 1 AND opt["a"] <> 0
PRINT opt["b"]
ENDIF
IF opt["c"] <> 1 AND opt["c"] <> 0
PRINT opt["c"]
ENDIF
Hope it helps
Regards
Dimitris
