Most command line programs and some Windows programs has the
ability to look for and handle parameters passed to it such as /? /HELP
/Q. If you want to add the same capability to your Delphi programs, you
can start with a function like this:

program cmdline;
uses
  SysUtils;

function CmdLineParamFound(sParamName : String ) : Boolean;
 const
 c_token = '/';
 var
 i     : integer;
 sTemp : string;

begin
 result := False;
 for i := 1 to ParamCount do
     begin
     sTemp := ParamStr( i );
     if( c_token = sTemp[ 1 ] )then
     begin
     if( ( c_token + UpperCase( sParamName ) ) =
     UpperCase( sTemp ) )then
     begin
     result := True;
     exit;
     end;
end;
end;
end;

begin
  if( CmdLineParamFound( 'HELP' ) )then
      begin
     //
     // display help here...
     //
     end;
end.
