Options at Command Line Only

Descriptions of options available only at command line

An option on the command line corresponds directly to an option on the Configuration pane in the user interface. The options below are exceptions to this rule. The basic options correspond to menu items and fields elsewhere in the user interface. The advanced options do not appear in the user interface. On the Configuration pane, you have to specify the command-line form of these options in the field Other.
