The Getopt::Std and Getopt::Long modules are standard -- they're already
there.
You can, however, roll your own, if you'd like. Or use the -s switch to
Perl:
#!/usr/bin/perl -s
# call this 'options.pl'
use strict;
use vars qw( $foo $bar $x $y );
print "$foo; $bar; $x; $y\n";
Then run:
% ./options.pl -foo=hi -bar -x=10 -y=-20
