Startup Command The TCI command line will typically include the program name with drive and path, followed by any options for the TCI. For example: c:\program files\jpsoft\TCI.exe There are several TCI startup options. The complete syntax for the TCI startup command line is (all on one line): d:\path\TCI.EXE [[/]@d:\path\inifile] [//directive=value...] [/A"title"] [/D d:\path] [/N d:\path\]program] [/R [d:\path\]program] [/S:rows:columns] [/T:xx] (Do not include the square brackets shown in the command line above. They are there to indicate that the items within the brackets are optional.) The command line must start with the path and name of TCI:
[c:\] d:\path\TCI.EXE The additional items below may be included on the command line: @d:\path\inifile OR /@d:\path\inifile This option sets the path and name of the .INI file. You don't need this option if
To get around a Windows limitation that causes the displayed command line of a shortcut to be truncated when a parameter begins with @, you can use the alternative syntax /@d:\path\inifile TCI will skip the leading forward slash. Options: //directive=value This option tells TCI to treat the text appearing between the // and the next space or tab as a directive. The directive should be in the same format as a line in the .INI file, but may not contain spaces, tabs, or comments. This option may be repeated. It is a convenient way to place a few simple directives on the startup line without having to modify or create a new .INI file. /A This option allows you to start TCI with the specified window attached. If the window title specified matches more than one window, all matching windows will be attached. If TCI is already running, /A will attach the specified window to the existing TCI session. /D Start TCI in the specified directory. /N You can specify the program to start in the first tab with the /N option. /N will always start a new TCI session, overriding the SingleInstance .INI directive. d:\path\TCI.exe /r d:\path\program /R You can specify the program to start in the first tab with the /R option: d:\path\TCI.exe /r d:\path\program If there is already a TCI session running, /R creates a new tab in the existing TCI rather than starting a new session. If you do not specify an argument for /R, TCI will switch to the current tab in an existing TCI session, or start TCI with the default tab if no TCI session is running. If TCI is minimized or in the system tray, /R will restore the TCI window to its default position. /S:rows,columns Set the startup window size, in rows and columns. /T:xx You can also specify the default colors to use for the tabs with the /T option. (This option is for compatibility with CMD and 4NT; you'll probably find it easier to use the tabbed configuration dialog to set colors.) d:\path\TCI.exe /T:xx Where xx are the foreground and background colors, in hexadecimal. |
