| how would i use or make my own shortcut commands in my program, like a way of opening up the devs console? i.e. just like the "C:/Program Files/Half-Life/hl.exe -console" in the half-life shortcut. or is it not possible, i thought i saw a b3d game use it before... |

| If you are referring to command line arguments passed to your own program then check out the CommandLine command. |

| ah that was exactly what i needed, thanks |
| ||
| and referring to command line arguments passed to BlitzBasic program ? |

| CommandLine$() returns whatever was sent to the program as command line argument. So in the case of daeve's example: "C:/Program Files/Half-Life/hl.exe -console" CommandLine$() will return "-console". Or like: "C:/Program Files/Half-Life/hl.exe -console -programmer -godmode" CommandLine$() will return "-console -programmer -godmode" It's your job to parse each part of the argument (console, programmer and godmode), as they are just a string and let your program act accordingly. |
