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'
