What exactly are you trying to implement? command-line arguments for your program?

Have a look here for a brief overview of command-line arguments.

Use sprintf() to set all the parameters of the DOS Command in a string.
The final DOS Command can be given using the system() function.

Click here for information on sprintf.
Bench's Link on commandline arguments is good enough.

Suppose you are writing a function that creates a directory.
You can do something like this:
CODE
sprintf(final_cmd,"md %s",argv[1]);
system(final_cmd);

This is assuming that final_cmd is a character array and that the parameter for the md command is the first command line argument provided to the program.
