argc & argv?

[Rod]

Sorry to be such a PITA tonight, but one more question and I'll let it go for the evening.

Does EB have the equivalent of of C's argc and argv[] for accessing arguments on the command line?

IOW, if I start my program with "myprog.exe abc", how do I obtain the "abc" from the command line?

Thanks!!!

This is for Aurora but the information is valid and converting should be simple:

Thanks, Paul! I've got that working now.

I thought I had seen that as an EBasic command, but I guess not.

It's simple enough to do, I don't suppose there's any point in making it a built-in command.

For some of these WinAPI commands that we're likely to use a lot, does it make sense to put a section into the documentation with examples?

Thanks for your help with this!!!!

GetArgCount, GetArgString and GetArgStringW are now in Beta1 Rev 3.  Available this evening to a computer near you

If this is in Aurora, why not in EBasic?  It is procedural, and could help in porting Ebasic programs to Aurora.

Because no matter how hard I try, I can't think of everything
