Parameter for passing a wrapper script from the command line

Open kevmeath opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Role

I use a script to launch multiple instances in a split screen arrangement, each instance uses a wrapper which may change between launches.

Suggestion

I want to pass a wrapper script via command line.

Benefit

In my case this would make launching multiple instances for split screen much easier, a new wrapper file won't have to be written each time, and choosing an instance to be used for split screen won't involve setting the wrapper command path in each instance, ultimately my script could be set up without manual configuration and without writing to any temporary files with each run.

This suggestion is unique

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

I'm looking at other options but this suggestion would definitely be best solution in my case. I have tried setting the wrapper command in the instance config before each launch but this gets overwritten once launched. I'm happy to provide the script that I use if it helps.
