Scripting: processing stanzas

Is there any utility analogous to getopt that can be used to process input
data in stanza format? Has to be useable with a Korn shell script, as I
don't speak Perl or anything clever like that.

If not, any convenient tricks? I'm writing something from scratch, so I
have complete control over the data format but stanzas would be simple to
maintain.
