Access command line arguments in Julia

Question

When I type in ``` $ julia myprog.jl foo bar baz ``` Where in my code can I go to access the strings `"foo", "bar", "baz"` ? I'm looking for the Python equivalent of `sys.argv`

Accepted Answer

Ah, more web-searching led to the right answer. The keyword `ARGS::Array{ASCIIString}` holds command line arguments

Here is a simple example

```
# cli.jl

print(map(x->string(x, x), ARGS))  # Concatenate each arg onto itself and print
```

Lets test it at the command line:

```
$ julia cli.jl a b c
aa
bb
cc
```
