python newb question : how to pass arguments to a function using DOS cmd line

Hi ,
how can we pass arguments to a function located in xyz.py file using the DOS command Prompt.

I know its very easy to pass using the python command line but m finding it impossible to do this same thing on the DOS prompt.


[In Python command line, i used sys.argv[..] to pass the args ..BUT how should we pass arguments using DOS prompt]

sys.argv[i] is also used at the command prompt. Sample:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. C:\python script.py arg1 arg2 arg3
