Hi there
I want to run my per script with arguments, for instance:
./script.pl -one value one text 1 -two value two text 2 -three value
three text 3
and i want to get those arguments in
$one = value one text 1
$two = value two text 2
$three = value three text 3

i tried with regular expression m/-one (.+?) -two (.+?) -three (.+?)/
and it works but when i mix-up arguments like:
./script.pl -two value two text 2 -three value three text 3 -one value
one text 1
then i need to use different regex.

Someone know other solution ?

Thanks in advance

Take a look at the Getopt::Long module.

perldoc Getopt::Long

Note that if there are spaces in the option strings, they will have to
be quoted on the command line.

For example, ./script.pl -two "value two text 2" -three "value three
text"

HTH, Ken

Of course that example should have been :

../script.pl --two "value two text 2" --three "value three text"

Have to use double dashs before the option if it is not a single
character.
