(Automated) Restart may ignore (existing) command line switches

Post by therube »

Just noting...


An (Automated) [Everything] Restart may ignore (preexisting) command line switches.


any number of Everything 'Restart' prompts
affect things like a pre-existing -read-only session, such
that on a 'Restart', the -read-only is not enforced, so that
on a subsequent Quit, the .db is re-written

(this "issue" has been around for a long time now - probably
ever since about:config came to be, & changes made to .ini
via about:config prompted for a 'Restart)

I will pass -read-only onto the restarted instance in the next alpha update.

Thank you for the suggestion.



Currently the following command line options are passed to the newly restarted instance:

-instance
-config

I will add the following:

-read-only
-no-db
-db <Everything.db>
