CLI variables

I tried to do a search but I was not shure what to look for.
Let´s say I have a php file called test.php with:

.........
<?
echo $n;
?>
.........

From dos i execute the cli version of php:

.....
php test.php
.....

Now I want from dos set the $n variable like (I am just making this up):

.............
php test.php -n Pelle
.............

I then want the result to be: Pelle

How do I do that? Is is possible?

Thanx,

If anyone will have the same problem here is how to do it.

First "register_argc_argv = Off" must be changed to On in the php.in file.

Then the code.
....................
<?
for ( $i = 0; $i < count($argv); $i++ ){
echo $argv[$i] . "\n";
}
?>
....................

The the commmand in dos

C:\php myscript.php --asdf -asdf
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.2

myscript.php
--asdf
-asdf

One note, the filename is also in the variable.
