here is how you do it,

a,b,c are the command line options

Code:

while
      getopts a:b:c: OPT 2>/dev/null
   do
      case $OPT in
         a)
            VarA=$OPTARG
         ;;
         b)
            VarB=$OPTARG
         ;;
         c) 
            VarC=$OPTARG
         ;;
         *)
            help #Call help function
         ;;
      esac
   done
