Can you please post your code so we can see what you're trying to do, and how?

Strawberry Perl handles command line arguments perfectly fine. Here's an example:

use warnings;
use strict;

if (@ARGV != 3){
    print "Program requires 3 arguments\n";
    exit;
}

my ($one, $two, $three) = @ARGV;

print "arg1: $one, arg2: $two, arg3: $three\n";

output:

> perl def.pl
Program requires 3 arguments

> perl def.pl 1 2 3
arg1: 1, arg2: 2, arg3: 3

If you require anything more elaborate than sending in a small number of simple args, there's the Getopt::Long distribution.
