GetOpts does the job, but GetArgs is brand spanking new and much more 
configurable.

However, unless you already use other PEAR packages I would think twice 
about loading the big Pear codebase just to parse a few commandline options.

Did I say the wrong package?  Oops.
Both are for the command line, but Aaron's right: I was thinking about 
the Getargs one.

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me how to pass arguments to a PHP script from the command
line? I know I need to use the -args option but how exactly, I have tried
the following...
/usr/bin/php myscript.php -args key=value
but this does not work, the script executes but key is not available as
$_GET["key"] in my script. Any pointers will be much appreciated.
