You can call a script with parameters by providing the parameters after the file name. Each parameter should be quoted:
DO my_script.cmm "<my_parameter1>" "<my_parameter2>"
The script can retrieve the parameter like below. In this example the script would fall-back to dialog or error handling if there is no password provided by command line.
PRIVATE &password
PARAMETERS &password
IF "&password"==""
(
;if no password provided from command line,
;then fall back to dialog or error handling.
)
PRINT "Password: &password"
ENDDO
