DCSMON
DOS Command Line Options
Syntax: DCSMON [opt 1] [opt 2]...
... [opt n]<CR>
opt 1
Initialization file; the default is
DCSMON.INI. Do not enter the file
extension (.INI).
opt 2
Project filename specification; the
default is DCSMON.BD1. Enter only if
an initialization file has been entered
as opt 1, and do not enter the file
extension (.BDn).
If DCSMON is started with no options
specified, the default files are used.
Other options are:
/D
Created a debug file (debug.txt)
with a history of all commands
executed from DCSMON
/F
Forces initialization of the module
when DCSMON starts
/L
Starts DCSMON in look-only mode
/R

/W

The „/‟ can also be a „-‟. These options can all
be specified in the .ini file, but when specified
on the command line they supersede the .ini
file.
