simplest way is to use Man Page for getopt (Linux Section 1) - The UNIX and Linux Forums

sample script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

args=`getopt s:f:v: $*`
set -- $args


for i
do
  echo "-->$i"
done

Better suggesting getopts as this is a Solaris forum and getopt is being phased out with it.

getopts(1) - parse utility options (man pages section 1: User Commands) - Sun Microsystems
