Other issues > Command Line Parameters

Comfort Typing (CType.exe) accepts optional command line parameters. These can be useful to developers, and to other programs calling the program.

/CLOSE

Closes a previously launched instance of the program.

/COMMON

When it's used, the program is launched with the same settings for all users.

Tells the program that its settings should be saved in the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComfortSoftware\CType

During a regular program start, settings are saved in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ComfortSoftware\CType

/INIFILE

Instructs the program to save its settings in an INI file. The settings are saved in the Backup.ini file located in the program installation folder.

/OPTIONS

Opens the program settings window.

/RESTORE

When the program is launched with this parameter, it loads the settings from the INI file specified in the command line. If another instance of the program is already running, the settings from the INI file are loaded into it. You can save the settings to an INI file using the Options window in the Advanced section.

For example: C:\Program Files\ComfortTyping\CType.exe /RESTORE "C:\Program Files\ComfortTyping\params.ini"

/SAFEMODE

Launches the program in the safe mode. Some program functions will be disabled.

/DEBUG

Causes the program to create a log file Log.txt in the program directory detailing program activity. This can be a helpful debugging aid.

The information contained in the log file is technical in nature and therefore not intended to be understandable by end users.

If a file with the specified name already exists it will be overwritten.
