args

Format

args = "argument_string"

Description

The args statement specifies command line arguments to launch a process. If the argument includes embedded spaces, enclose it in single quotes.

Example

To convert a startup script line, such as io-hid -U 46:46 -dps2ser-vm kbd:kbddev:vmware:mousedev, set command and args to the following:

command = "io-hid"
args = "-U 46:46 -dps2ser-vm kbd:kbddev:vmware:mousedev"

Default

None.

Multiplicity

Zero or one instance in a task block.

Constraints

• Double quotes within args are not allowed.

• If args is specified in a task, then the task must have one of the exec*() functions so that args is used at run time.
