[Gambas-user] a command line with arguments to parsed program?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

You can use gb.args in your program

Arguments are separated by a space when they are used to run the program,

for example when you call a gambas program like this: ./myprogram.gambas -t
-f=2 --no-separate-pages

you have 3 arguments:

-t
-f=2
--no-separate-pages

(these three arguments are just an example they don't mean
anything specific)

Args.Count counts all the arguments, so in our example it would be 4 and
that's because ./myprogram.gambas is also considered an argument (Argument
0, the first argument)

You can check how many arguments we have by using Args.Max, which gives you
whatever Args.Count gives you -1

So when you have more than one argument you can run through them and do
your argument analysis that way.

I think gb.Args also has some helper subs and functions for argument
analysis.

Check the documentation about gb.args and you'll see what I mean.

Hope this helps out.
