How to make Commands with Switches in CMD

Okay so basically I have created a suite of tools to use with the command line (cmd), and I want to add switches to them the same way you would for a command like ipconfig. You have IpConfig and IpConfig /all. My command will be called nettools. Currently it is a batch file inside of the C:\windows\system32 folder that uses the type command to display a text files contents. In this file are the names of the tools and their descriptions. This command does not pause or ask for user input it only displays the info inside of the txt file. How can I add switches such as nettools /? or nettools /snif....

Please watch the following video as the answers provided have also failed to work.

@echo off
SET "parameter=%~1"
if /i "%parameter%" equ "" goto :help

for %%p in (putty tcpview fiddler ) do (
  if  /i "%parameter:~1%" equ "%%~p" goto :%%~p
  rem if  /i "%parameter%" equ "%%~p" goto :%%~p
)
goto :wrong_parameter

:putty
  start putty (or call putty.bat)
goto :eof

:tcpview 
  start wget (or call the bat)
goto :eof

and so on. (will not work with "?wget" ) you can use directly START to call the tools if they are in the %PATH% or in the same directory.
