NAME

       hatari-prg-args - autorun Atari programs with arguments

SYNOPSIS

       hatari-prg-args [-q] [Hatari args] -- <Atari program> <program args>

DESCRIPTION

       Utility  for  running  Hatari  so that it autostarts given Atari program and inserts given
       arguments to program (to its basepage, with builtin Hatari debugger facilities).

       If Atari program arguments have same (host) path prefix  as  given  Atari  program,  those
       prefixes  are  replaced  with "C:\". Unix path separators (/) are replaced with Atari ones
       (\) and whole filename is upper-cased.

       If program and its input files are on a disk image, all paths need to be given as on  with
       TOS, and won't be translated.

       Other program arguments are passed unmodified.

NOTES

       Maximum  Atari  program  command  line  length  that  can  be  given  (in basepage) is 126
       characters.

       On Unix, Atari/DOS path separators (\) need to be quoted.

OPTIONS

       -q     Make Hatari quit when the started Atari program terminates.  If given,  this  needs
              to be the first argument.

EXAMPLES

       Start SID player in mono and tell it to play given SID song:
              hatari-prg-args -m -- atari/sidplay.ttp atari/sids/test.sid

       Run it from disk image instead of host directory:
              hatari-prg-args -m -- 'A:\SIDPLAY.TTP' 'SIDS\TEST.SID'
