Commandline Options

Top  Previous  Next

You can start FARR with some commandline options for advanced usage.

 

NOTE: You can launch a second instance of FARR with these arguments, and they will be PASSED ON TO THE FIRST INSTANCE and executed, without actually leaving a second instance running (so don't specify -exit unless you want to kill all running instances)

 

•-standalone = start FARR visible and in taskbar, and exit on close of window
•-search "search string" = start FARR visible (or bring up any running copy) and start a search
•-show = start FARR visible (or bring up any running copy)
•-hide = hide FARR if visible
•-toggle = toggle display of farr
•-exit = exit any running copy of FARR.
•-exitifnotrunning = exit FARR unless it was already running and this was a second instance launched just to search or launch
•-launch = start FARR (or invoke in a running copy) and launch a command (can use any normal FARR launch strings including setting user variables, etc.)
•-unloadplugins = tell running instance of FARR to unload all plugins temporarily, so that plugin files can be replaced
•-loadplugins = tell farr to reload temporarily unloaded plugins (must be balanced # of calls)
