Commandline switch in menu

Arno Van Eeuwen

Hello all,

I have a customized menu item, carrying following command:

^c^c^c(startapp (findfile "c:\\folder1\\folder2\\Program.exe"))

If I want to start Program.exe with a commandline switch, like : Program1.exe /switch,

is there a way available to put this in the menu?

If not, is there a workaround?

 

TIA,

Arno van Eeuwen

Arno, have you tried placing a commandline switch as a second argument to startapp?

For example:

(startapp "c:/program files/bricsys/bricscad v9/bricscad.exe" "/p profile2")

does successfully start the bricscad app for me with the profile2 active.

That's exactly what I needed.

Thank you, Greg.
