Hi,
I want to use the import and export CSV tools  (bin/csv/export.php and bin /csv/import.php) for transferring data and parameters between test and production environments.
Besides the problem of headers, which can be corrected with the indications described in http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,32922.msg140760.html#msg140760, I can't seem how to define the $options array used in the civicrm_apiv3 function.
For example, how specify offset and limit in command line to have the request :
     $ result = civicrm_api3 ('Contact', 'get', array (
     'sequential' => 1,
     'options' => array ('limit' => 5 'offset' => 500)
     ));

Thank you for your help.
