Command line options

adepoch

Command line arguments are values that are passed to an application on the command line, usually using a terminal of some kind. In MS Windows this is usually acheived using cmd.exe, or running an app using a batch file. An example might be

"python.exe" "pyDaSSQLiteMan.pyw" "c:\blah\somefile.sql" - autorun

The following options can be used by passing arguments on the command line. (I've only checked this onMS Windows):

  1. Passing an SQL file to the app will load the file contnts into a worksheet, ready to run or edit.
  2. Passing the -autorun option will execute the Run All on the file that has been loaded in the worksheet.
  3. Passing a known database file type to the app will place that text in the connection field of the app.
