Pass parameters to the binary file

Good Morning:

I wanted to know if it is possible to send parameters when executing a 
binary compiled in linux. This is because my executable needs to take 
the facts from a program that the user enters.

In summary, what I want to know is whether it is possible to compile a 
pl file and be able to pass a parameter to the resulting executable 
file. For example, if my executable is ' test ', I can run it by passing 
it a text file of the form: % test 'textfile'. In this way I intend that 
the executable take that file and perform a consult(' textfile ').

Thank you very much for the information, as you will know, I am new 
using the compiler.

Greetings.
