How to input file to julia script in command line

Question

Say that I have script.jl and file.txt. At the moment I read the file within the script. (with the path hard coded)

What I would like to do is to type:

julia script.jl /path/to/file.txt

in the command line (linux), and then handle the file in the script. How to do this?

Thanks in advance! Mathias

Found the answer. The array ARGS holds the command line arguments :)
