Command line arguments *gui-w32-cmdargs* -Analysis of a command line into parameters is not standardised in MS Windows. -Gvim has to provide logic to analyse a command line. This logic is likely to -be different from the default logic provided by a compilation system used to -build vim. The differences relate to unusual double quote (") usage. -The arguments "C:\My Music\freude.txt" and "+/Sch\"iller" are handled in the -same way. The argument "+/Sch""iller" may be handled different by gvim and -vim, depending what it was compiled with. - -The rules are: - a) A parameter is a sequence of graphic characters. - b) Parameters are separated by white space. - c) A parameter can be enclosed in double quotes to include white space. - d) A sequence of zero or more backslashes (\) and a double quote (") - is special. The effective number of backslashes is halved, rounded - down. An even number of backslashes reverses the acceptability of - spaces and tabs, an odd number of backslashes produces a literal - double quote. - -So: - " is a special double quote - \" is a literal double quote - \\" is a literal backslash and a special double quote - \\\" is a literal backslash and a literal double quote - \\\\" is 2 literal backslashes and a special double quote - \\\\\" is 2 literal backslashes and a literal double quote - etc. - -Example: > - gvim "C:\My Music\freude" +"set ignorecase" +/"\"foo\\" +\"bar\\\" - -opens "C:\My Music\freude" and executes the line mode commands: > - set ignorecase; /"foo\ and /bar\" +Command line arguments behave the same way as with the console application, +see |win32-cmdargs|. ============================================================================== 8.
