How to read input username to drush script?

Question

I need to complete a script which gets a username from terminal to a php script and then deletes the user's comments.

So I am wondering how the username should be read by the php script, the same way that one can read a value in a bash script.

Thanks

What do you want to achieve? Pass the script a user name on the command line or have the script asking you for the user name while it's running. If it's not to many users you could also show a list of users and let the administrator choose. Of course this options do not exclude each other.

in the command hook you define your arguments and those are then passed to the function that implements the command

If you implement a drush command, you can call that via the command line and define arguments and switches.

You can easily then hook into drupal. as your function can run from a bootstrapped drupal instance.
