I can't think of the exact syntax at the minute but something like;

if $# => 4 then
    for i = 1 to ($# - 4)
        echo "arg number $i is $expr($i)"
    next
fi

$#  is the number of args passed so just pass the total number of args
minus four ($~-4)

That syntax is all wrong, but somebody on this list (in fact many
people on this list) knows the correct syntax, thats just my crapp
pesudo code to explain one method of achieving you desired result,
HTH.
