AddArgs

AddArgs is a utility for power users who want to run some programs with some predefined parameters in the command line. Let us say you want to be able to drop some files or directories over a shortcut (in the desktop or in a folder) use the Send to menu to send them to a shortcut you created in the SendTo folder. The trouble is that the program the shortcut points to might take advantage of some switches or parameters included in the command line when it is invoked. Unfortunately, it seems that you cannot specify those parameters in a shortcut; but you can use AddArgs to do that.

Read the documentation in addargs.pdf.

The program might also be useful to create a shortcut that runs a program in a less common state (such as in a hidden window or in a normal window which does not receive the focus when started).

AddArgs will run under Windows XP and later.
