Command Line Options
-
-a account
- Use this command line option to have Polarbar start up with the named account,
instead of starting up with the default account (which is the account that was in
use the last time that Polarbar was successfully shut down).
-
-d directory
-
This parameter specifies the location of your Mailer
directory. If you do not specify this parameter, the program will use the
Mailer subdirectory of the current directory of the session in which the
program is running. If there is no Mailer subdirectory in the current session's
directory, the program will create one and will store all account information
below it. If you want to start the program from somewhere other than the
parent of your Mailer directory, use this parameter to tell the program
where to find/create the Mailer directory.
-
-getmail
- Use this command line option to have Polarbar start up, retrieve mail, and exit.
-
-launch launch file
- Use this command line option to have Polarbar use the named launch file, instead
of using the default "launch.dat" file (which is located in the selected account
directory). Unless an absolute file path is specified, the
file is treated as being relative to the selected account directory.
-
-longfolderlist

-syssettings system settings file
- Use this command line option to have Polarbar use the named system settings file,

Absolute File Path
- On Linux, an absolute file path starts with a directory separator (e.g., /home/user/launch.dat).
- On Windows or OS/2, an absolute file path starts with a drive letter (e.g., C:\Polarbar\launch.dat).
