Pyparsing has built-in quoted string support.
from pyparsing import OneOrMore,Word,alphanums,quotedString
item = Word('-',alphanums) | quotedString | Word(alphanums)
items = OneOrMore(item)
print items.parseString( "-a -b -c '1 2 3' -d 5 -e zork2000" )
gives:
['-a', '-b', '-c', "'1 2 3'", '-d'

seems like CSV except that the seperator is space. You may check to see
if the CSV module can take space as delimiter.

>>> import shlex
>>> shlex.split("-a -b -c '1 2 3'")
['-a', '-b', '-c', '1 2 3']
