= DESCRIPTION =
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
= OPTIONS =
|
|
|
|
: **-n**, **--new-app**
|
|

|
|

|
|
of application
|
|
|
|
: **-s**, **--use-session**[=//yes|no//]
|
|
load and save session. By default **medit** does it when **-n** is not used.

|
|
use existing instance with process id //PID//.
|

|
then it will send files given on the command line to that instance and exit.
|
|
|
|
: **-e**, **--encoding** //ENCODING//
|
|
use provided character encoding to open the file
|
|
|
|
: **-l**, **--line** //LINE//
|
|
open file and position cursor on line //LINE//. Alternatively
|
|
line number may be specified with filename, e.g.
|
|
medit foo.txt:12
|
|
|
|
: **-r**, **--reload**
|
|
automatically reload opened file if it was modified on disk by another program.
|
|
|
|
: **-w**, **--new-window**
|
|
open file in a new window.
|
|
|
|
: **-t**, **--new-tab**
|
|
open file in a new tab.
|
|
|
|
: **--log-file** //FILE//
|
|
write debug output into //FILE//. This option is only useful on Windows.
|
|
|
|
: **--log-window**
|
|
show debug output in a log window. This option is only useful on Windows.
|
|
|
|
: **--debug** //DOMAINS//
|
|
enable debug output for //DOMAINS// (if **medit** was compiled with
|
|
--enable-debug option).
|
|
|
|
: **--geometry** //WIDTHxHEIGHT//
|
|
: **--geometry** //WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y//
|
|
default window size and position.
|
|
|
|

|
|
show summary of options.
|
|
|
|
: **-v**, **--version**
|
|

|
|
|
|
: //FILES//
|
|
list of files to open. Filenames may include line numbers after colon,
|
|
e.g. /tmp/file.txt:200. Trailing colon is ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
= ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES =
|
|
|
|
: MEDIT_PID
|
|
if set, it is used as --pid argument. When medit spawns a process (e.g. a DVI viewer) it sets
|
|
MEDIT_PID to its own process id, so the child process may in turn simply use 'medit filename'
|
|
to open a file (e.g. for inverse DVI search).
