[FX.php List] Any body ever use pyfilemaker?

[Steve Winter]

Hi Troy

I'm not Dale, but I do know the answer… see http://php.net/manual/en/function.getopt.php

Then you can pass in things like 
	script.php -a transport -b truck

if in script.php you then set
	$args = getopt("a:b:")

$args will then be an array which has
	$args['a'] = transport
	$args['b'] = truck
