Command Line Switches

Source Edit supports a few switches that you can use if you launch Source Edit from a command line.

SrcEdit.exe [FileName] [-NoPathChange] [-Col:nn] [-Line:nn]

FileName The path and name of a document to open.
-NoPathChange By default if Source Edit is launched and a file is passed on the command line the File Window will change to show the path of that file. If the file resides on a remote network it can take Source Edit some time to populate the File Window. By using this switch Source Edit will not change the path.
-Col:nn Specifies the column number that should be selected in the file where nn is a number.
-Line:nn Specifies the line number that should be selected in the file where nn is a number. If the number is higher then the number of lines in the file the last line will be selected.
