IMatch supports the following command line arguments:
Argument | Description |
---|---|
Database file name | You can specify the database to open on the command line. The database name must be fully-qualified (full path) and enclosed in "" when it contains blanks. Example:
The |
/lang=lang-id | This parameter allows to start IMatch with a specific user interface language. Supported for lang-id are currently en, de, nl and pt. This parameter is especially useful for volunteer translators who help to translate IMatch into different languages. You can create multiple shortcuts for IMatch on the desktop and provide different /lang parameters for each shortcut. This makes switching between languages very quick. Just start IMatch with the shortcut for a specific language. |
/goto=file name | After opening the database, IMatch switches to the Media & Folders View and selects the specified file. You can use this parameter to switch to a specific folder and select a specific file after opening IMatch. The file name must be fully-qualified (full path) and enclosed in "" if it contains blanks. Example:
|
/resetwp | Resets main window, panel and toolbar positions and re-creates the 'Default' workspace. This is a recovery function that allows you to reset the entire IMatch user interface to a known default. You can use this e.g., after switching to a much smaller monitor or when the settings database has become corrupted for some reason and there is no backup available. |
/ex=[on|off] | Override the experimental features mode configured in the application settings for the current IMatch session. Use /ex=on to enable experimental features or /ex=off to disable them. |
/em=[on|off] | Override the expert mode configured in the application settings for the current IMatch session. Use /em=on to enable expert mode or /em=off to disable it. |
/dl=[normal|debug] | Override the logging mode set via Help menu > Support. |
