you import the sys module, and read up on
sys.argv in the manual?

(hint: sys.argv contains a list of all command
line arguments passed to the program. argv[0]
is the name of the program itself).

if you want to parse options in a standard
fashion, you can use the getopt module.  see
the docs for details.
