How do I pass arguments to PHP.exe interpreter?

[Guest_imported]

Example: If I wanted to call the page c:\php\install.php?step=2


would I call:

c:\php\php.exe -f c:\php\install.php?step=2
or

c:\php\php.exe -f c:\php\install.php ?step=2

or

c:\php\php.exe -f c:\php\install.php step=2

what format must the php.exe accept the arguments in?
