Others have replied how to define this if you want arbitrary number of 
parameters. But if you want something similar to \somemacro#1#2#3 you can 
use (the is some extra book-keeing because you want {..} as delimiters. 
Which means you either change catcodes, or do this shuffling around of 
arguments)

\def\somemacro#1%
    {\dosomemaco[#1]}

\def\dosomemacro[#1,#2,#3]%
   {whatever you want the macro to be}
