in thread Use Getopt::Long even if you don't think you need to

When things get complex like that I think a config file should be an option and a GUI to help manage it might also be nice.

But keep in mind you can always put everything into a shell script with each option on its own line (just use a backslash to continue the command on the next line). In effect the shell script then becomes a config file (albeit a weak one).
