Perhaps this.

Code:
[/tmp]$ cat try.ksh
#! /bin/ksh
#

while [ $# -gt 0 ] 
do
    key=${1%=*}
    case $key in
        "-Dparameter1") echo "Param1=[${1#$key=}]" ;;
        "-Dparameter2") echo "Param2=[${1#$key=}]" ;;
    esac
    shift;
done
    
[/tmp]$ ./try.ksh -Dparameter1="something" -Dparameter2="more"
Param1=[something]
Param2=[more]
[/tmp]$ ./try.ksh -Dparameter2="more" -Dparameter1="something"
Param2=[more]
Param1=[something]
[/tmp]$

You can add more flags within the case-esac construct.

NAME
gsl-randist - generate random samples from various distributions SYNOPSYS
gsl-randist seed n DIST param1 param2 [..] DESCRIPTION
gsl-randist is a demonstration program for the GNU Scientific Library. It generates n random samples from the distribution DIST using the distribution parameters param1, param2, ... EXAMPLE
Here is an example. We generate 10000 random samples from a Cauchy distribution with a width of 30 and histogram them over the range -100 to 100, using 200 bins. gsl-randist 0 10000 cauchy 30 | gsl-histogram -100 100 200 > histogram.dat A plot of the resulting histogram will show the familiar shape of the Cauchy distribution with fluctuations caused by the finite sample size. awk '{print $1, $3 ; print $2, $3}' histogram.dat | graph -T X SEE ALSO
