At the command prompt, you do:
C:\Oracle> sqlldr system/manager_at_db1 control=<name of controlfile> log=<name of logfile> direct=<true or false> data=<name of data file> bad=<name of bad file> discard=<name of discard file> discardmax=<max number of records to discard> errors=<maximum number of bad records to permit> ...
...and so on. In other words, SQL Loader is a user process that has to connect to the database just as you have to do when you run SQL Plus.
For a list of the complete set of command line parameters, have a look at the Oracle8i utilities manual at technet.oracle.com, and look for "SQL Loader Command Line Reference".
