SysUtils

FindCmdLineSwitch determines whether a string represents a command-line switch, based on the first character of the string. 

Switch is a command line parameter, typically provided by the ParamStr function. 

Chars is the set of characters that distinguish switches from other parameters. If SwitchChars is omitted, it defaults to '/' and '-' on Windows, and to '-' on Linux. 

IgnoreCase determines whether case-insensitive character matching is used. The default is true on Windows, false on Linux.
