TinyTERM version 4 has several command-line parameters. They can be used in any combination, except where conflict is evident.

• -nosplash
  Starts TinyTERM without the introductory splash screen.
• –debug
  Starts TinyTERM in debug mode. This causes extended debug information to write to the debug monitor if it’s open. By default the debug monitor is installed to C:\Program Files\Century\TinyTERM\dbmon32\dbmon32.exe.
• –mkdefs
  Does not run TinyTERM. Instead, it makes a new copy of default.tpx with all default settings.
• –a1 telnet://address
  Brings up OLE mode 1. This starts TinyTERM in the default browser with the URL helper address as shown; e.g.,

  tt –a1 telnet://208.219.23.12

  and connects the session.

• –a2 file.tpx
  Brings up OLE mode 2. This also starts TinyTERM in the default browser, using the listed tpx file.
• tpx1.tpx tpx2.tpx tpx3.tpx etc.
  Opens the specified .tpx file(s). This is the only argument that does not start with a dash. Up to nine may be listed on a single command line, separated by spaces. The .tpx extension does not need to be supplied, as it will be assumed if it’s not present.

There will also be a license argument. The value will be the first three characters of your serial number. The specific value depends on the version of TinyTERM you have installed. See the version table for more information.

If the specified license is not available, TinyTERM will generate a license error instead.
