Can I do a: el.exe -p 2001

Recommended Posts

I'm doing more and more stuff on the test server and editing the el.ini file each time is getting old.

 

Does the client support a command line parameter to over-ride the default port? If so I can simply define two startup icons: one for the main server, and one for the test server.

 

I've tried the obvious (-p, -sp, -port, -server_port) with no luck.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks.

-sp=2001 and --server-port=2001 ... neither of which work, as of a few months back, but the (broken) code is still there :(

-sp=2001 and --server-port=2001

 

You're right, they both failed a test just now. I am sad. :(

 

Any chance someone could FIX this?

 

Thanks.

......It's:

-sp 2001
--server-port=2001

 

By standards, you only use '=' on the long-options.

well, that then. though generally the single dash options are only one letter (and you can have several per dash)... it's not like EL always follows conventions :P
